It's a tricky one, I'd say something like you can break the FW ABI
"until HW becomes available for public consumption" or such.
I'm guessing what we're after is letting people break the compatibility
in early stages of the product development cycles. Pre-silicon and
bring up, but not after there are products on the market?
