You don't need to do that, you can unmask anything depending on the
reason.  Didn't the autounmask  option fix your problem?

You can also use the 5.4.66 stable version.
Also, even in 5.8.13 speakup is still in staging and I did a search
and found it in  drivers/staging/speakup, so you can certainly try
that or whatever version of 5.8 you have.
