Yep, that's totally necessary... Except the Fixes tag should be wrong here,
as you're not fixing that commit, but the mtk-vcodec driver in relation to
what's happening due to said commit.

I get that you're trying to tell everyone "this is an urgent fix", though,
and I agree that this *has to* get in v5.19 to avoid breaking this driver.

Finally, for the code:

...but I think that you have to send a v2 that drops that Fixes tag.

Cheers,
