Minor concern: it should do the wait for ready before sending each command.
Can we get a command line to do this quirk too - it strikes me that if
the MSIs rely upon it then it may be something Windows always does so
will be useful to try on other problem machines as an experiment.
I agree, one has to keep in mind the age-old question "how does Windows
work?" since it surely has no such quirk. I'd say we're sometimes too
quick to add these DMI quirks when a more general solution would be
somehow figure out how the Linux behavior differs from what Windows is
doing.
