Tangent: I've been told before, but I can't remember why we need the
"probe" interface.  Since we're looking at this area again, can we add
a comment to clarify this?

Every time I read this, I wonder why we can't just get rid of the
probe and attempt a reset.  If it fails because it's not supported, we
could just try the next one in the list.
