Yes. I think that gives a more intuitive interface for users.
I don't think we need to 'fix' any drivers already upstream as
presenting these as differential is not an ABI error as far as I
am concerned. It's just less than ideal choices given our views
now! (as a result of these discussions on what pseudo differential
means in practice)
