Where did you get that info? Publicly available schematic clearly shows
PMIC interrupt pin being connected to PC9. Additionally, R_PIO controller
on H616 is very basic and has only pins PL0 and PL1, which are used for
PMIC communication already. Neither of those pins is interrupt capable.

I think proposed solution just bypasses the problem, not actually fixes
it. Can you share kernel crash report?

Sidenote: Tested-by: tag doesn't have any value if you're also the author
of the patch. It's already implied that you tested your solution/improvements.

Best regards,
