Hi Paul

Interestingly, both Eberhard (cc'ed) and I have hit similar problems in
this driver recently. See the thread
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20231120132256.136625-1-rasmus.villemoes@prevas.dk/
.

It is possible that this also fixes the problems I/we saw, but I can't
get around to testing until sometime next week.

Rasmus
