Yes, we'd definitely be carrying both interfaces for at least a year.

Looking further into this, I'm not sure it makes much sense either.
Another problem with configfs is that the lifetime of the object is
controlled by userspace.  So if we lose a connection to a target,
the object will persist in configfs until userspace notices.
