Simpler the better. 

Our fix was released back in February. (There are other issues in our attempt I
admit).

https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/jammy/commit/?id=2e8d8dffa2e0b5291522548309ec70428be7cf5a

If someone can pick this submission, I will be happy to replace our version.
