As mentioned in my previous reply to Naresh, this is a new driver added in
6.1. Your board was working before so this should not be the driver needed
for it.

Which is very strange... There is only one hunk in that commit that could
be considered suspicious:

Is your board using one of these compatible string ?

Serge ?
Any idea ?
