+ * verb (INIT_INSTANCE, CONFIG_GET/SET, LARGE_CONFIG, BIND, UNBIND,
+ * DELETE_INSTANCE) would be unreachable from the fuzzer.

+ * 1-based index into the runtime component driver list, counting only
+ * instantiable module-adapter drivers so the fuzzer's module_id space matches
+ * what a real signed manifest would expose.
+ *
+ * module_id 0 (BaseFW) is deliberately not mapped: BaseFW is never created as
+ * a pipeline component - its messages are dispatched directly by base_fw.c -
+ * so returning NULL for it here is correct.
