Yes, understood :-) For OF_EMBED though...?

It was actually quite hard to add a migration message until we added
the CONFIG_SERIAL base thing and that was a pain to do.

For those of us who take on larger refactors etc., we end up spending
a lot of our time on these few platforms. I'm not picking on tbs2910in
in particular.
