As described by Vitaly Lifshits:
> Starting from Tiger Lake, LAN NVM is locked for writes by SW, so the
> driver cannot perform checksum validation and correction. This means
> that all NVM images must leave the factory with correct checksum and
> checksum valid bit set. Since Tiger Lake devices were the first to have
> this lock, some systems in the field did not meet this requirement.
> Therefore, for these transitional devices we skip checksum update and
> verification, if the valid bit is not set.
