I've suggested a fix for the driver here:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/f485d1d4f7b34cc2ebf3d60030d1c67b4016af3c.1720107535.git.daniel@makrotopia.org/
It has been tested and acknowledged by Arinc, hence a possible solution
would be to apply it and there by restore compatibility with existing
(broken) device trees.
