[Impact]
Drivers for the HiSilicon Hi1616 and Hi1620 SoCs continue to be under active development, including both hardware enablement and bug fix patches. With the amount of flux involved, identifying and cherry-picking individual patches would be more error prone then re-syncing with current upstream periodically.

[Test Case]

[Fix]
Various upstream patches.

[Regression Risk]
The number of changes here obviously comes with regression risk. However, these drivers are only used for two HiSilicon SoCs and their corresponding development platforms - D05 and D06. We are therefore able to mitigate the risk by directly testing these changes on the impacted devices.
