I haven't gone through the entire patch, but i have a question. Was this
exercised for bare-metal?
If not, please make sure this test works correctly on bare-metal targets
before assuming it does just because it passes on Linux-hosted tests.
Otherwise we may have spurious failures due to tests that are not
supposed to be executed in a bare-metal environment.
If you don't have access to bare-metal testing, i could give this a try
(it may take a couple days though) and report back.
Thanks,
Luis
