I was surprised to see that it was not called as well, but I wasn't able
to track it down before..

..but I did some more digging and I found that the precise "firmware"
that fails is the ZAP blob, which is not checked like SQE in the
commit you mentioned!

Now I don't think that we can easily check for it as-is since
zap_shader_load_mdt() does the entire find-load-authenticate
dance which is required with secure assets, but it's obviously
possible to rip out the find-load part of that and go on from
there.

Do you think that would be a better solution?
