But this basically means that either a) users have to know that they need to twiddle a bit, or they get "my device doesn't work" or b) distros have to maintain a list of "these devices need to have the bit twiddled". Which either ends up being done not at all, on a per distro basis or based on having to have yet another callout whenever a device is loaded. As opposed to having the patch, in which case things work for the user as they are going to expect.
