I think that since we do have a proof positive report, and well
documented success of the fix, we should add the fix even though
we have the fallback thing to take care of it.

This is how we were going to use the fall-back code, to make the the
chipset blacklist more robust yet still allow the user's machine to
work meanwhile.  Here, we have enough information to add the blacklist
entry safely.

What do you think?
