I'm a little confused. If the conflicting behavior has been corrected,
why is this being discussed here? A device side fix is surely the best
possible outcome for everyone here. Requiring a kernel upgrade to work
around undesirable firmware behavior is a bit unpleasant for end users
when you already have a solution that works with any nvme capable OS. ?
