It would be really useful to have a kernel build option which *disables* all the workarounds we've ever put in for broken firmware. Every deviation from the spec (or common sense), however minor, should show up as a clear failure. Even the ones we *have* been able to work around, because we still want them *fixed*. And there's a school of thought that says we should brick as many Samsung machines as possible, if they actually turn up without having fixed that. A stress test for the NV storage is actually a really good idea... -- dwmw2
