What is not yet fixed with the recent patch that was just sent to the
list?

Doing core changes like this is hard, I have seen no lack of willingness
to fix reported problems or major breakages that would deserve a revert.

It broken all Amlogic and Qualcomm boards, are we sure it didn't break other systems that are not CI tested on -next ?

This serie clearly deserved a v2, patch 11 wasn't seriously reviewed, and it deserved a ping on the RFT before sending a v1.

I don't understand why speeding up this changeset and applying it without any reviews nor tests was so important.

Thanks,
Neil
