Sardonimous,
Sorry that it took so long to get back to you.
For my ppc32, there is no regression. It took a while to learn the pio=1 and
qos=0 are BOTH needed. That I do not understand, but with both set, the device
works with kernel 6.4 and all earlier kernels that I tried. Fortunately, I did
not need to do the entire bisection.
I am working on eliminating the warning that appears with qos=0, but it does not
inhibit operations.
@Bagas Sanjaya: Please mark this "regression" as invalid.
