Would it be useful to add:

1 = PXP support is available

And start returning that after we've successfully created our first 
session? Not sure if userspace would use this though, since they still 
need to handle the 0 case anyway.
I'm also ok with this patch as-is, as long as you get an ack from the 
userspace drivers for this interface behavior:
