Probably worth mentioning that we have *lots* of devices that suffer from this problem. Our general tact has to been to do nothing and let the driver crash and burn in non-predictable ways when userland tries to use both APIs at the same time. So while it's pretty pathetic that we still haven't resolved this after all these years, if you didn't address the issue in the initial release then you wouldn't be much worse off than lots of other devices.
