Agreed.  That is, I think that either the configured minimum kernel 
version or the kernel support at runtime (or both, with the configured 
minimum kernel allowing runtime tests to be disabled) should be what 
determines whether these implementations can be used - rather than 
enabling multi-arch changing the minimum kernel version.
