Unfortunately sashiko fund more stuff:

https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260323074441.91691-1-xuanzhuo%40linux.alibaba.com

AFAIK checks vs malicious values from the H/W are not due, but stats
endianness, 32-bits, truesize related concerns looks real.

As for the acceptance criteria, we should not merge code with known
issues. A problem with this driver submission is the size and complexity
which allow LLMs to dig different things at different moments.
