Could you precise:
- Which workload are you fixing
- Which platforms are concerned
- Which platforms were tested

So far I've been trying to run the "getserial" on SM8550-QRD and SM8650-QRD without
success, would those changes fix this ?
Is there any chance we could get an open-source minimal implementation of a fastRPC SDK using
the open-source Hexagon LLVM like we have for the AIC100 ?
It would definitely help validating the upstream fastRPC implementation.

Thanks,
Neil
