If you pull a release for that, can you possibly revert 9de2b9286a6
("ASoC: mediatek: Check for error clk pointer") as well ? It does not
realy fix anything but breaks pretty much all Mediatek systems using
the mtk-scpsys driver. I sent a revert request
	https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220205014755.699603-1-linux@roeck-us.net/
but the it looks like the submitter keeps defending their patch. In the
current state, pretty much all stable release starting with v4.19.y won't
work for affected systems due to this patch.

Thanks,
Guenter
