This link is dead, and I'd rather replace it with a (HTTPS)
lore.kernel.org link.

IIUC that's:

https://lore.kernel.org/r/alpine.DEB.2.21.1902081950260.1662@nanos.tec.linutronix.de

... later referred to in the sub-thread:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/20190213170413.GE6346@brain-police/

Will, does that look right to you?

Mark.
