Yes I assume this is still an issue there too, but I was hoping that
Kishon can take a look and maybe actually fix things, since just
reverting presumably regresses whatever these patches were addressing.

We've aprox 1-3 weeks before distros like Arch and Linux will switch
to 5.15.y kernels.  So we have some time to come up with a fix
there, where as for 5.14.y this is hitting users now.
