No. Let's be clear - I didn't break your AM335x system, your broken patch says that Daniel did with a commit applied back in v4.10. As such I don't consider it my responsibility to fix your problem at all, I don't have any access to the hardware anyway & I won't be buying hardware to fix a bug for you. Despite all that I did write a patch which I expect would have solved the problem for both of us, which is linked *twice* in the quoted emails above & which as far as I can tell you *still* have not tested. I can only surmise that you're trying deliberately to be annoying at this point. If you want to try the patch I already wrote, and confirm whether it actually works for you, then let's talk. Otherwise we're done here. Thanks, Paul
