It was set as such a long time ago when we enabled the option:

https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/linux/-/commit/25e71bd23902b424ec9457244db24faad8b4359f

I suspect the idea was to make it possible for users to use this new
feature, but only as a opt-in, while it was still very fresh.

Maybe Ben remembers.

But I guess we could drop the Debian specific patch.

Regards,
Salvatore
