Hello Pin-yen,

as I discussed with Chen-Yu - yes, we must make sure that this does not
create any regression on machines running on other SoC models.

I think it's unlikely that it does, but since the HW is available, being
extremely careful with validating this change is a good idea :-)

If you can/want to test before we do, sure, please send the new patch and,
when you do, please say that you tested it and on which SoCs; as long as
it's not just one SoC, that'll be good enough for me.

P.S.: Please don't top-post!

Cheers,
Angelo
