Do you mean it is an option to synthesizer it or not? So although the
basic IP licensed from Cadence has it, a silicon vendor could remove
it?

This is not typical. If the hardware supports it, we let the end user
decided if they want to use it or not.

So if all silicon should have it, enable it everywhere. If there is an
option to save some gates and leave it out of the silicon, then we do
need some per device knowledge, or a register which tells us what the
synthesis options where.
