The description for this patch should be made clearer. The title
suggests it adds functionality that's already in place. It should be
something along the lines of "Also pass malformed tuples to card
drivers".
In the sake of sanity, you might want to add this behaviour to all
parsers, not just the FUNCE one.
I'm also unclear on how this is supposed to work. What does the
broadcom tuple look like? This patch looks like it will silence a lot
of legitimate warnings, and possibly pollute the card structures with
bogus data.

Misleading comment, the tuple is not unknown.

What does this change improve?

Silencing a legitimate error.

Misleading comment, the tuple might be known but malformed.
