Yes, my question was about having it optional for vdev also. A platform could implement the vdev
without kick mechanism but by polling depending due to hardware capability...
This could be an alternative avoiding to implement a dummy function in platform driver.

Anyway it just a proposal that makes sense from MPOV. If Bjorn is ok with your patch, nothing blocking on my side.
