Oh geez, we have a spelling.txt! I think we can declare the kernel as
done and go do something else with our lives...

Oh, that's what it is.

So maybe "fuses block" or "fuses" or ... just the capitalized "FUSE" is

Or simply "Invalid IP block specified, error information is unreliable."
and still continue decoding. It might still be recognizable from the
signature, methinks.
