That's how it is supposed to work. The platform drivers are the
fallback, practically.
But this is the important piece of info I was looking for - having GHES
enabled in the firmware does not prevent the platform drivers from
loading. But I think we have a better solution, the FF thing.

You can but that's not addressing the issue as a whole so it'll be a
waste of time.
