Yes, though it does leave the UAPI files there for people to look at
which is a big part of the risk since they end up getting shipped
separately to the kernel binary.  Might be sufficient, though - we could
just put some #errors in the headers to catch potential users.  Or
perhaps we're OK with the ABI as it stands.

It's probably worth adding that anyway - I know Intel at least are keen
on having the capability to minimise memory usage!
