It's still an upstream issue. You should be lobbying upstream to apply the fix.

The fix [1] should be in mainline for 6.6-rc4 [2]. Perhaps linux and linux-zen could switch to it from the revert for the next release?

I was not sure of the process. Lucky for me this is the first time I deal with a kernel issue. I assume since it will be fixed in mainline that the fix will be applied to lts as well? I don't feel it is urgent as blacklisting the driver for lts is fine for the short term. Since it was fixed in arch 6.5.4 I assumed it could be handled internally until a fix was applied upstream that would propogate down.

Queued for 6.1.56 [1].
