We need kernel doc for this, as pointed out by kbuilld.

You need to undo this in the onion teardown.

Why 125?

Do we wan't to silently fail here, shouldn't we be screaming and shouting?

Also do we have to do re-upload the noa config unconditionally, is it
not feasible to only do so when there is a change in the slice/sublice
configuration between contexts?
