I'm not sure I follow that comment.
I feel like there is some confusion about what firmware can return vs the UAPI
structure. You have already marshaled the data between the 2. We can define
whatever we want for the UAPI structures throwing away data the kernel does not
understand from the firmware.

I respectfully disagree. You intended to use a copy of this structure in
kernel to store the data. Just do that.

I don't see how that addresses this? See my other email.
