FWIW, it's already helpful for regression testing. ndctl/cxl(1) will make use of
it for validating driver internals and our QEMU emulation. I don't mean to imply
that's the only usage.

Yes. I think having distros not enable the Kconfig option is going to be the
best path in the early days so they don't get used to having it available.
