Well, yes and no.
Series of max310x patches depends on it:
!!a just a preparation; buggy, whole series for fixing this |ef8537927 285e76 o: 5.10| serial: max
310x: use regmap methods for SPI batch operations
...
!! whole series to fix corruption, which did not exist in 5.10 in the first place |57871c388 3f42b1 o: 5.10| serial: max310x: fix IO data corruption in batched
operations
But according to the 3f42b1, the bug did not exist in 5.10 in the
first place, so we got buggy 285e76 backported, and then fixes up-to
3f42b1 applied to fix it up.
Best regards,
Pavel
