Yes, you do. FWFT extensions are equivalent to CPU extensions. But all
this should have been done before including Clement's work. Without it
userspace has no way to support FWFT.

Drew, I see you have Reviewed-by on the patches; please keep an eye on
this stuff.

Can you respin with the fix to the SoB line and no FWFT support?

Thanks,

Paolo
