What I am missing either in the patch (but in this case bug report would be
better) is an assessment about impact and risk of regressing other things. From
the patch itself it is changing something that exists. What I cannot remember is
whether that only exists because it was specifically added for that specific HW.
I suppose I could go and dig the repo for an answer but it would speed up the
whole thing if whoever submits those kind of changes (I assume whoever does it
will remember those things) would add context and save me the hassle. ;)
