Where is this property documented, I dont see anything in linux-next for
today

Yes, but they have been running for months, literally.

Unfortunately, since these are production level platforms, all of the
usual low-level debugging avenues (JTAG) have been closed off.  Also,
only a very small number of people have access to documentation, but
even those who are in possession are stumped.

Andy Gross did have one idea as to what might be happening, but it
turned out to be a red herring.

That could also work.

Not sure how this is possible.  Unless you mean LTS?

Someone must have tested it?  Surely ... ;)

Sounds okay to me.  Let me code that up.
