Oh dear. First patch in a kernel release for a while and I already break
things.

Cc: Sasha as this patch has just been applied to 5.13-stable.

Unfortunately I don't have any RK3399 hardware. Is this a custom
board/special hardware or something that is readily available in the
shops? Maybe this is a good reason to buy a RK3399 based single-board
computer :-)

I am working on the RK3568 EVB1 and have not encountered faulty
behavior. DHCP works fine and I can boot via NFS. Therefore, not sure
whether I can be much of help in this matter, but in case you want to
discuss this further please do not hesitate to contact me off-list.
