I guess it's going to be even more of an issue going forward given the
recent events but FWIW it was always very unusual to see any review of
any TWL patches, the PMIC appeared to have been rather abandoned so the
only way of getting any testing was to put stuff in -next and hope.

Mind you, if there is an issue it doesn't seem that serious given that
it took at least one kernel release before anyone noticed and even when
they did you're the first person who bothered to respond...
