Great! Many thanks for doing this.

Ok. I take it that there will be a v4 appearing shortly with that fix?

Throttling is normal, and warnings about throttling can (generally) be
safely ignored.

Crashes are very bad. Do you have any logs from those crashes in other
drivers that you can share?

It is possible that a bug in one driver causes failures in another (e.g.
if events are erroneously grouped together), so it's not alwyas clear if
this is an unrelated bug (though if you can trigger the issue without
your driver present, it clearly is).

Thanks,
Mark.
