Research direction

The issue names nn.Linear patching but no file, test, or entry point. Start by locating the repository code that patches nn.Linear and determine whether module-specific disabling is already supported. Done should be a clear, documented way to disable patching for one module, or a precisely scoped implementation plan if it is not.
