I assume you're talking about the 600p/p3100. That family of devices
prefer 4k alignment, and patch below will enforce that, fixing all
access issues. I wasn't planning to post it because my understanding is
an imminent f/w update will make it unnecessary.

I understand there is a different issue specific to the KBL NUC platforms
that exposes some other errata, but I don't know much about that.

For all issues, though, a f/w update fixing them is undergoing validation,
but I don't have insider information on the release date.
