"This issue comes from a rework which switched from using chip_good()
to chip_ready(), because <explain the difference here>."
[please note I am just trying to understand what the root cause is,
please rephrase if I'm wrong].

I think you can get rid of all the above Cc: tags and just copy all 3
of us + the mailing list when sending your v4.

Please also include a Fixes/stable tag in the patch before (2/3) to explain
that both patches are required in order to fix the issue and the current patch alone won't apply.
You should mention that with a nice comment below the three dashes ("---") in patch 2/3 as well.

This is much more understandable.
Vignesh, perhaps it would be better to provide a way for manufacturers
to overload certain callbacks instead of applying quirks like this in
the code. But that will come in a second time of course.
Thanks,
