I've seen similar issues in other drivers, but I think the culprit is
the following bug fix 'ff34f3cce278 ("firmware: qcom: scm: Ensure 'a0'
status code is treated as signed")', rather than the recent refactoring.

As this is a bug fix it's quite likely to show up in linux-stable as
well and regress older versions, so you should probably Cc stable as
well.

I'm not sure what the appropriate mechanism is here, but your workaround
seems reasonable.
