I thought these have this enabled by default? This list is old and maintained by several of my team, originating from quite a ways back (i.e., much older kernels). It's quite possible that some of it is redundant today. > Also any caveats here I should be aware of? That it's only maintained for the express purpose of Chrome{device}s?
