It doesn't mean that there couldn't be an user in the future of this
KPI in terms of thirdy part modules.
These functions are part of the public KPI and we speak a lot about
making our KPI as less as dependent by compiling options so I don't
really see why you are not happy about this.

If the function (intr_bind() included) is part of the public KPI it
can be called by thirdy part modules too.
