Patch is correct but as Mark already mentioned I would like some testing
done on systems that rely on the parking protocol (hopefully FW clears
the entry point correctly but I want to understand if this patch would
trigger regressions that would force us to add quirks around it - even
if we know this patch does the right thing from a kernel perspective).
