With the Linux kernel 6.14 out now, I noted in my quick-look overview about a bug that was fixed for the Steam Deck OLED model. Collabora have given a little more info on their work for this issue and how it was a challenge.

This is a nice look behind the scenes of the work and companies that go into fixing a bug like this.

      The DSP firmware the code comment mentions is probably a proprietary binary blob, right? That means it’s pretty much a blackbox and it’s not possible to fix the underlying issue, hence this workaround.
