Rather than turning this into a hard fail; you should make it a
WARN_ONCE().  I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of drivers have the bad
behaviour, and applying this patch could have far reaching
consequences, including boards failing to boot.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
