If I had kept that in, it would actually be providing an older version of the component than the main variant. So I am not sure if it's actually being used; if it is, then it should see more frequent updates.

linux-yocto-dev needs it, and unfortunately I've been hung up for
several weeks on getting mips64 to boot with the latest kernels. Hence
my entire queue is held up on that at the moment.

It is definitely needed.

So if it is dropped now, I'll just have to re-introduce it in my next series.
