I claim that there's just not a single valid case of doing
wide-scale changes atomically and departing from the current
to-be-stabilized kernel tree materially. _Every_ large-scale API
change can be done in a staged way, with each subsystem adopting to
the change at their own pace, it just has to be planned well and
tested well enough and has to be executed persistently.
