Forged completions need no matching outstanding command (dispatch is opcode-only, hci_event.c:324-351). Not guest-verified: winning the syscall-vs-NETISR interleaving needs instrumentation inside the verbatim code under test, which would invalidate the rig; documented as speculative/likely with the full chain.",
