How is this working, and are these still the caveats?  The CVS logs
don't seem to show big changes -- more like some rough edges and bugs
fixed.

Is anyone using this driver in an always-on mode, and is it reliable?

Is anyone using this on a Protectli box, e.g.
  https://protectli.com/product/vp2420/

Does this seem like a crazy plan, or ok, for one's home router?
