So the problem is that if I apply this patch I can't apply Govind's QMI
patchset (due to the build problems) until Niklas' fixes to qcom and
rpmsg subsystems propogate back to my tree and that might take weeks, or
even months. But I really would like to apply the QMI patchset ASAP so
that we can complete the wcn3990 support and not unnecessarily delay it.

So what I propose is that I put this patch 2 as 'Awaiting Upstream' in
patchwork and apply it once Niklas' patches get to my tree. Does that
sound good?
