 3. I've just bisected a seemingly unrelated issue to the same commit.
    On Salvator-XS with R-Car H3, initialization of the rcar-du driver now
    takes more than 1 minute due to flip_done time outs, while it took 0.12s
    before:

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
