Since May 2023 this patch is integrated into the Debian kernel build
[1]. However it would be better if we could integrate it into the
kernel directly. Is there anything blocking? For me, the patch looks
fine. Similar patches for Nvidia boards also already got integrated
[2].

If there is no general objection against enabling the overlays, I plan
to send patches for the sun8i-h3 arm boards as well.
