My patch provides transparent updates to handle it. It will read broken EEPROMs and verify the CRC in the old location, and if you have re-save the EEPROM, it will put the CRC in the right place.

It will work by chance, accessing random data. This is crap.

It is not crap, and it will not work by chance. It is not accessing random data, it is accessing the CRC in the old location, just like the current code does today.
