I've blocklisted the in-kernel pd-mapper module for now and have
switched back to the userspace pd-mapper.

I don't know if it's helpful or not, but I don't get these error logs
when using to the in-kernel pd-mapper. It's just that the phone's mic
only works on approximately every third boot (unless I defer loading the
module).

If you come up with a patch, I'd be glad to test it on my
xiaomi-beryllium device.

Thanks again,
