The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit changes internal CI (Continuous Integration) scripts used to flash firmware onto test devices during automated builds. It temporarily removes a file-locking wrapper around flashing commands because GitLab was not reliably killing background processes. There is no change to the actual Jade firmware, wallet code, or anything end users install. It is purely a build/test infrastructure adjustment.

Recommended action

No security action needed. Monitor the referenced FIXME items to ensure file locking is re-enabled once GitLab process termination is reliable, preventing CI job collisions on shared serial hardware.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.

This commit fixes the use of the "%zu" printf format specifier, which is not supported by the ESP32 toolchain used in this project. The unsupported format could cause log messages and user-facing strings to display incorrect or garbage val…
