The only way to implement a *mechanism* is to provide different ICIDs for all the blocks. Any other solution would be imposing a *policy*, thus restricting user's possibilities. Admittedly there are use cases less "popular" than others, but if possible it would be best not to decide for the user and provide full flexibility.
Is there a resource (ICID values) shortage?
No. I can change the patch to have distinct ICIDs and resubmit. Please let me know if you agree on this.
Yes, this is my suggestion. IIUC it's also similar to the way LIODNs are allocated on PPC. True, LS102x is the exception - it assigns ICID 0x10 to all SEC blocks.
