Thanks for this.  FYI the cause of this issue is already understood (refer
to previous linux-platform-driver ML discussions).  The relevant part of the
patch series (08/10) has been (or will be) reverted by Andy to resolve the
problem for the moment (as per my earlier email).  The issue that part 08/10
was aiming to fix will be addressed in a more complete way in a follow up
patch series from Michael in due course as explained in my Reviewed-by
comment.

Regards
