Thanks for the heads up. Maintaining such a large patch is quite unsuitable.
Packaging Chromium has the same issue, but it has fewer lines patch than here.
The major issue is to have conflict with ppc64's patch.

It is wise to push these changes to Chromium upstream. But it will
cost a long time maybe.

Thanks again.
