I've reported already but also didn't find any functional impact. Since you've got a DA200, I'm a bit curious - does https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/631759/ activate on it? I've only got WD15 and TB15's. Thanks, ��.n��������+%������w��{.n�����{���)��jg��������ݢj����G�������j:+v���w�m������w�������h�����٥
