Do you really want this additional configuration in your driver or

I would prefer you describe what this actually means.
We don't really care about the value itself.

And a boolean is enough, this is a flag.

I don't like the name of this API, since it gives the impression it
returns "segments"..
But on the other hand, this is aligned with the mcfg field: people
touching the internals have more chances to see there is an exported
API.

Cc: Anatoly (but I think he is off for this week).

Other than that I am ok with this change.
