Comment:

 Fixed in svn 392.  I created a new "/mfg-data" device node whose
 properties are the manufacturing data entries.  The property name is the
 2-character tag name, and the value is a byte array containing the
 verbatim contents of the manufacturing data value.  In most cases, those
 values are null-terminated text strings, which dovetails exactly with
 device tree property encoding rules.

 The fix will appear in the firmware release on or after q2c12c.rom
