I'm aware that this is quite a hack, so I'm unsure if this is suitable
for upstream. On the other hand, the Android ticket isn't moving
anywhere and even if it were fixed in Android, I'd expect it to take
years until that fix would propagate or unpatched Android devices to
vanish. So I'm wondering if it should be treated like a hardware bug
workaround and by that should be suitable for applying it upstream in
the Linux kernel?
Long after those Android devices are deprecated and no longer used, we
will still have this ugly hack in the tree.

Sorry, we're not doing this.
