Unfortunately, "x y for z" can be parsed in multiple ways that result in opposite meanings.

Explaining with examples:

* [io_uring support] [for libuv]: "libuv has io_uring support"

* [io_uring] [support for libuv]: "io_uring has support for libuv"

* [Windows subsystem] [for Linux]: "Linux has a Windows subsystem"

* [Windows] [subsystem for Linux]: "Windows has a subsystem for Linux"

[x] [y for z] / "x has y for z" is much more common.
