He did that as a fallback in case he really messed up something. It introduces renumbering of busses that don’t already have numbers assigned. It should be enabled on ARM, but the required resource isn’t defined on arm, and some of the other required glue doesn’t seem to be implemented for arm yet, which is why things are the way they are at the moment. I think John intends for the option to go away, and everything it covers will be ‘standard’. Warner
