Hi Florian,

I've done much the same for Boston already - do these patches work for
you?

    https://git.linux-mips.org/cgit/linux-mti.git/commit/?id=09f91e2742fa45ec6199e2657c4302ac432b7340

Or you could fetch & cherry-pick them from the linux-mti.git repository:

    git remote add mti git://git.linux-mips.org/pub/scm/linux-mti.git
    git fetch mti
    git cherry-pick 75b59b3bddde~7..75b59b3bddde

They apply cleanly to v4.5, hopefully won't need much massaging to apply
to current master. When I get to resubmitting the Boston board support
these patches will be part of it.

Thanks,
    Paul
