Hi Janne,
Since this is a new feature, please explain why this change is desired (i.e.
the necessity.)

For backward compatibility reason, we shouldn't remove a pre-existing option
without solid justification and probably a grace period. I suggest adding the
hwversion option in addition, and document and check it as exclusive with the
compat6 flag.
