For the console/TTY and modem usecase I think it's pretty much
necessary don't you think?

Else these users (which is by far the most widespread of the
kernel users) will be punished by too many wakeups if they
use DMA. And they should be able to do that, right? This is
a perfect fit for the Versatile and PB11MPcore ARM reference
designs.
