//! Unit coverage for the TOKEN_TX dispatch's CRC-gated promotion
//! and decode paths.
//!
//! Two production gates inside [`dispatch_bulk_message`] inspect each
//! `BulkMessage` the streaming [`crate::vmm::bulk::HostAssembler`]
//! yields from the virtio-console port-1 TX byte stream:
//!
//!   * `MSG_TYPE_SCHED_EXIT && crc_ok` — flips the run-wide kill flag
//!     and writes the kill eventfd so the BSP loop and the watchdog
//!     exit promptly. CRC failures must NOT promote — a torn frame
//!     would otherwise let a hostile guest force a false early exit.
//!   * `MSG_TYPE_SNAPSHOT_REQUEST && crc_ok &&
//!     decode_snapshot_request(payload).is_some()` — pushes the
//!     decoded request onto the per-iteration pending list for
//!     dispatch to `freeze_and_capture` / `arm_user_watchpoint`.
//!     CRC failures must NOT decode — a torn snapshot request would
//!     otherwise let a hostile guest force a spurious capture or
//!     watchpoint arm.
//!   * `MSG_TYPE_SYS_RDY && crc_ok && payload.is_empty()` — fires the
//!     boot-complete eventfd exactly once (`Option::take`). CRC
//!     failures must NOT fire — a torn frame would race ahead of
//!     percpu/KASLR setup.
//!
//! These gates are exercised through the production
//! [`dispatch_bulk_message`] (a `pub(super)` fn reachable from this
//! freeze-coord child module) driving a real [`BulkDispatchSinks`]:
//! build a CRC-mangled TLV byte stream, run it through the same
//! `HostAssembler::feed` the closure uses, dispatch each resulting
//! `BulkMessage`, then assert on the sinks (kill flag / kill_evt
//! counter / sys_rdy take + counter / snapshot-pending len) and the
//! returned `Option<ShmEntry>`. A regression that drops a `crc_ok`
//! clause in the real dispatch fails here.
