We are *post -rc7* and days away from release.

I can't push this to Linus without a detailed description of what this

Yes, I can wing it, but I shouldn't *have to* especially not when half

OK, I'll pull this for now, but this *really* need to be an automatic
quirk of some sort, especially when there is a named board in the mix...
