Hi Michael,
I guess looking for a better or more ideal solution sounds good, but sorry if this is impertinent, as it's coming from a mostly uninvolved 3rd party: This is affects a kernel that is labeled as "stable". It seems extremely unacceptable to break ethernet support for boards like the rockpro64, which are used largely in a headless fashion, when the offending commit has already been identified.
I don't expect a stable kernel release to completely break my hardware and then see people not immediately applying a workaround patch. It seems strange. I'm not fond of having to fix things through serial console and hunting through mailing lists to figure out what's going on. I'd only expect this for -rc kernels.
Just my two cents.
Best regards, Sebastian
