So I double checked, the commit ccd3517faf18 (which is being "fixed")
was introduced in v6.0-rc1. v6.0-rc1 did not have "qcom,pmk8350-pon"
compatible, thus it could not be fixed that way. Therefore this cannot
be logically fix for that commit from that release.
"Fixes" means that commit has a bug and this is how it should be fixed.
So v6.0 kernel should be fixed to use "qcom,pmk8350-pon" compatible,
which is obviously wrong. v6.0 does not support it and the "fix" would
actually break it (which might be worse or better than original problem,
but that's independent thing).
Best regards,
Krzysztof
