Thanks for the bug report Daniele. Just adding a note for the Ubuntu kernel team that this driver is currently in the staging directory. I also glanced at the upstream git tree and it doesn't appear this patch has been accepted into upstream staging yet either.
Daniele, just curious if you also submitted this patch to the upstream kernel? If not, it would be great if you did that as well. For now, I'll close the upstream bug watch associated with this report until we hear back from you. Thanks.
