Also note that Linux kernel drivers trust the hardware for the most
part.  If you can get control over a spi or spio bus, then of course all
bets are off, that is not the Linux security model at all.  So if you
care about invalid data on that bus, please work on auditing and fixing
up all kernel drivers for that subsystem as this is a totally new threat
model that no one has ever handled for this operating system (and one
that no one ever said we were secure from.)

thanks,
