It is indeed the same bug and the proposed workaround works fine.

Still, I think that the choice of compiling the corresponding driver
as a module instead of embedding it in the kernel is a decision that
will impact many users when they upgrade their plug device from Debian
Stretch to Buster.

Most of them are bound to meet the same issue.

Any chance this choice would be reconsidered?
