For reference, I tested this patch on sdm845 (db845c), qcm2290 aka
qrb2210 (rb1), sm6115 aka qrb4210 (rb2) and sm8150 platforms.
I was not able to fully test it on sda660, modem crashes without this
patch (there is no MSA_READY indication) and with the patch applied
the device hangs, most likely because of the IOMMU or clocking issue.
