What geonim? I don't believe any geonim mention this idea.
As I wrote earlier, AFAIK it's the Abudraham's own chiddush.
The "gezera shava" from Yechezkel is not a source at all; one can't
make up ones own gezeros shavos, and there doesn't seem to be any
source for this one. And as I also wrote earlier, I think the only
reason anyone has ever taken it seriously is because it's hypothetical,
so it's just a fun idea to bat around; if it were halacha lemaaseh
the Abudraham would probably never have proposed it in the first place,
and if he had it would have immediately been dismissed out of hand by
everyone else.
