    Welcome to the forums!

    Questions about why something is or is not included in the kernel would probably be better placed on a kernel developers mailing list or forum, as not many if any of the members here are kernel developers.

    Maybe because it is not a standard yet. It on the track to become a standard. Otherwise you would need to talk with the network developers. After that talk, you could work on implementing as a patch and when good enough, and with needed support get it added into the source tree.
