Thanks - I saw that after I mailed.

I think that would be ideal. There is firmware out in the wild that
has neither identifier in it (for example, a bunch of folks in the
office bought platforms recently that don't boot upstream kernels).
My guys are used to just taking an upstream kernel and using that,
for development, and I have no intention of having the broader RH
org do any different from what they would do with an x86 box ;)
