If you like, I can apply the patch below and take that through my
asm-generic tree along with the two bug fixes I sent:

Is that what you had in mind? I see that Fenghua Yu has not been
actively involved for a long time. If you are both out, that would
make the port unmaintained, but that may actually help find someone
else to either volunteer as a maintainer or pay someone if they
have a commercial interest.
