Status: WontFix (was: Assigned)
The affected file only exists in chromeos-3.10. Affected function and code, however, does not exist / is not supported in chromeos-3.10. The Android bug says "... in latest nvmap code there is a race condition ...". This latest code is not available in chromeos-3.10. Marking bug as WontFix.
Not sure what to do with labels and priority. Leaving alone for now.
