Yes, if we're not 100% certain that the interfaces are correnct and unchanging
and that the implementation is solid, we should disable the feature at Kconfig time.

The best option would be to fix things asap.  But assuming that option isn't
reasonable and/or safe, we can slip a `depends on BROKEN' into -rc6 then
resume development for 2.6.25.
