Hi Christoph

to be honest i have no opinion on this. I am currently trying to reduce
the amount of patches that we have inside the LEDE tree. the patches
were written by other people and then dumped on us. obviously i am
interested to get this upstream with the least amount of effort. I am
quite aware though that some patches will need an overhaul to be
applicable for upstream. its not really my call if it is enough to make
this an enable patch and review the quirks enabled by it or if the code
needs to be moved.
