Hi Hannes, You have submitted this patch in past as it was part of SLES kernel but missing in upstream and it was concluded to drop this patch then. This issue was fixed in firmware 4 years back and many firmware versions should be available with the fix so this fix is not required in driver(upstream as well SLES kernel). Do you see any functional issue without this patch ? If not, I would request to back out this patch from SLES kernel also.
