Hello Jonathan,

sorry for the late response. This is a very old chip, I'm sorry I won't be
able to check the modification on my side.

By looking at it, it seems correct if it is indeed fixing the issue. I'm
giving my acknowledgement to the patch.

Acked-by: Jean-Baptiste Maneyrol <jean-baptiste.maneyrol@....com>

Thanks,
JB
