This is not how kernel development works. Patches eventually find their way into a release. This patch is already in 6.1-rc1 and will appear in a future Arch kernel. We don't randomly apply patches for quirky bits of hardware unless there is very good reason (which this is not). Especially when the requestor might not even be running Arch ( FS#74858 )
