Robin, would you please give a clear suggestion for the hw_info?

My takeaway is that you would want the unsupported features (per
firmware overrides and errata) to be stripped from the reporting
IDR array. Alternatively, we could start with some basic nesting
features less those advanced ones (HTTU/PRI or so), and then add
then later once we're comfortable to advertise.

Does this sound okay to you?

Thanks
