Unforutnately bootloader is not updated in tandem with kernel
on general-purpose distros.

I would rank pinmux above bus recovery.

Revert is the simplest option, and I still believe many boards are affected.

SolidRun have strong interest to resolve this for their platforms
(to fix our boards currently broken in Debian 13).

If revert is not acceptable I can implement my described workaround of
describing **all pins** in device-tree instead, for SR boards only
(which is a much larger task).
