Thanks, should have read your email as well before replying to the

I will respin this with "xo" intact, then once we've fixed up the DSI

But I still don't understand why we don't have this problem on e.g.
sdm845. I must be missing something...

Sounds good, I'd be happy to give you a review on that patch :)
