Greg,

I didn't realize the patches I'm trying to revert never landed on
5.19. So you can ignore this thread.

I guess it's 6.0 now. But I'm almost done with my actual fixes that
rewrite some parts of fw_devlink to make it a lot more robust. So, I'm
not sure if all these reverts need to land anymore.

I'm hoping to send out the proper fixes by the end of this week. Maybe
you can try that out and let me know if it solves your issues (I
expect it to).

I'm surprised that specific clock patch has an impact though. It's
just touching properties that fw_devlink doesn't parse.
