First, I would like to thanks Radiomaster devs for their investigation and contribution to bring to surface this issue. Great work guys.
Bottom line is that we have an issue with async call handling based on xTimerPendFunctionCallFromISR(). We need some time to understand why we have that issue.
In the meantime, this workaround allows the switch to be read even if the call to xTimerPendFunctionCallFromISR() was not successful.
Another part of EdgeTX relying heavily on xTimerPendFunctionCallFromISR() is telemetry handling, but the protocol is handling it so this is not critical, so the workaround is not applied there.
