This is an issue you've brought up to me several months ago.
I started looking into it, but because the vendor driver development
happens in a completely different universe the divergence noise is
substantial and it's a huge effort to consolidate these two drivers.
I think that until the vendor starts to care, nothing is going to
happen to resolve these ASIC driver bugs.
