tabs where the rest were not?

Why all the different values?  Can't we pick one and use it for all
arches?  Having these be different in different arches and userspace
should not be a thing for new fields, right?

Having to do this for all drivers feels wrong.  It isn't needed for any
other flag, right?  That makes me really not like this change as it
feels very ackward and
yet-another-thing-a-serial-driver-has-to-remember.

And as you are wanting to pass this bit to userspace, where is that
documented?

thanks,
