I submitted a different patch for this a while ago:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230612124024.520720-3-arnd@xxxxxxxxxx/

I think I never sent a v2 of that, but I still have a
working version in my local tree. I've replaced my version
with yours for testing now, to see if you still need something
beyond that.
