Unfortunately, there has not been any further reply by the Microsemi 
support, and the driver 1.2.14-016 does not built against Linux 5.9 or 
master.

Were you able to reproduce the issue? What is the timeline to getting 
this fixed?

Linux 5.10 is going to be a long-term support release, so it would be 
great to have the problems fixed as soon as possible.


Kind regards,

Paul
