Built and booted on an i386 device OK. No problems noticed in dmesg.

I still vote for a unified patch rather then a series of patches.
The unified patch can be applied to a source tree and then reversed.
With series of patches it will fail if 2 patches are touching the same 
area of a file.

In my setup I first do a dry-run-apply patch, and it has failed with the 
current 5.10.252-rc1 series.

Yes, git would have worked as well, however copying the patch to a build 
machine with a ready src tree is much faster ;-)

Thanks, Woody
