I'd rather continue working on mainlining the Xperia 10 III, but now I apparently have to figure out how to revert the latest changes on https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Sony_Xperia_10_III_(sony-pdx213)

The edit added generated slop. The linked repo contains generated code. Instead of editing the device tree, it — in an amazingly dumb way — uses a Python script to search and replace two words in the device tree.

Pretty sure editing the file is easier.

Also, it is based on an old 6.12 kernel. A lot of the things done in that repo are questionable at best.

Luckily someone reverted the change while I was busy eating... Thanks a lot. :)

Also, please don't try to use any of that. The parts I looked at seemed pretty wrong.

(What I mean with pretty wrong: It will likely brick your phone beyong repair. Just don't.)
