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.

Larry
