That's generally the reason people give for not doing the standard APIs - there were a few architectures that didn't have DMA hardware so didn't even have stubs for the DMA API for example, until those were added you used to end up with build testing tripping over them constantly. It's much rarer to have an incompatible implementation of the same thing. > Similarly we don't build drivers/acpi.
