Yeah. But at least it doesn't look like it would lock up the machine by just being horribly wrong (like the reset code would). After all, all it does is to wait for the requests to finish.
So I'm hoping that with just the reset routine basically removed, the thing might limp along. But since I can't test it (and am not that horribly motivated by it), I'll just see if somebody reports any success at all with that patch.
