That's not too surprising. The broken patch is in the core kernel so
you need the fix in the core kernel. I think that means you'll have to
wait until `android-mainline` gets the fix. I don't work on Android,
so if there's some other route to get an expedited fix into
android-mainline I'm not aware of it.
