No I won't, it'll be tomorrow before I get the actual fix done.  Trying
to work around this without just going and doing the conversion to
reg_read() and reg_write() is far too messy whichever way I try to do
it, I'd rather put that conversion in an -rc than try to dance around
the issue.  It may be safer to just go with the revert and live with
the broken DTs for another release.
