The theory is that it might not be the RCS reset itself that causes us to lose 0xFDC but rather something else that happened between the last time we applied the steering (e.g., at init) and when we do the reset. We've asked the hardware guys about this register not sticking, but really the only thing we've heard back so far is "try checking the steering." Presumably steering is good at startup since the workaround sticks at that point, but then gets changed or cleared later by the time we do the reset. Unfortunately none of our pre-merge CI machines or local machines exhibit this problem, only the CI "re-run" machine, so we don't have a good way to investigate this in a more direct manner. Would re-applying the steering in the engine workaround list cause any problems? It seems like in the worst case it would do nothing at all and the problem would persist, but at least it would protect us in case some other unknown event causes 0xfdc to be reset, and the eventual results we get from CI re-runs would let us know if we're on the right track or not.
