Just an update. I can't actually verify whether there are more
diagnostics with the current Tekram driver, because I no longer have
user-level I/O errors and I'm reluctant to deliberately generate them.
The bug was more of a concern that this was evidence of a general
loophole allowing I/O errors to be propagated up to the user without
ever causing a kernel error message.
I *could* try to arrange for a sacrificial system and do a number of
horrible things to the bus. But if the driver folk are confident that
they've covered all the bases, that's good enough for me.
