stable inclusion
from stable-5.10.40
commit d88f05cecefda12f33a47af80a8944d8972f84f5
bugzilla: 51882
CVE: NA

--------------------------------

commit 58c0cc2d upstream.

This reverts commit ec7f6aad.

Because of recent interactions with developers from @umn.edu, all
commits from them have been recently re-reviewed to ensure if they were
correct or not.

Upon review, this commit was found to be incorrect for the reasons
below, so it must be reverted.  It will be fixed up "correctly" in a
later kernel change.

This patch "looks" correct, but the driver keeps on running and will
fail horribly right afterward if this error condition ever trips.

So points for trying to resolve an issue, but a huge NEGATIVE value for
providing a "fake" fix for the problem as nothing actually got resolved
at all.  I'll go fix this up properly...
