This config option is considered so immature that it's not ready for the kernel config, even as an EXPERIMENTAL. Use it at your own risk.

Of course. But the choice is simple. Without it, one has a non-functional device. With it, one has a device that works beautifully.

#1 lore raw

I would seriously argue with the "works beautifully" part of that.

The DPCM code relies on the SDDR09 code, which is horrendously buggy. It's also being actively worked on. I can crash it at will with relatively simple operations.
