I decided to go with 32bit version to make the fix smaller and easier to
backport. If you select revert, make sure that it is applied after
moving gpu node under /soc, otherwise the gpu node will have incorrect
(32bit) reg property. Also add the gpu related patch as an (optional?)
prerequisite for it.

Ookay, I wasn't aware of that.
