please note that Finn's patch depends on one of mine currently under review.
Without that one, Q40 support may break in certain cases.


AFAIK, that's only true for a configuration that enables both CONFIG_Q40
and CONFIG_ATARI. In my tests with stock v5.12, such a configuration
presently doesn't work correctly on Atari.

This patch series doesn't make this issue any worse.

You're right, it's not a regression (that combination was broken before) , and there's no patch dependency or conflict either.

Besides, I think it is a non-issue because the problem is so rare that
no-one noticed it before I did, and the workaround for CONFIG_Q40 users is
trivial anyway (disable CONFIG_ATARI).

Is there really some benefit in holding up this patch series?

On second thought - no point in holding this up.

Cheers,

	Michael
