Things are not looking that bad any longer, IMHO.  There's a 6.6 PR
ready(?) for merging: https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/16204

AFACS, the latest revision addresses all comments so far.  Better test
coverage on different hardware and actual use cases would probably be
good though.

So please, everybody: Go test that code now!

That's the best help you currenly can give the target. Remember to
enable v6.6 by setting CONFIG_TESTING_KERNEL=y in .config.  It's so easy
to forget.  Done that several times myself...
