That strikes me as needlessly unfriendly, you could warn/return NULL and
propogate a WARN_ONCE back to the user.

NAK. I pointed this problem with the driver to you way back - this code
gets run always - even on machines that are not in fact Moorestown which
are then going to crash.

You need to check that the platform is Moorestown (not just the CPU
either because of Oaktrail)
