[PATCH v2 2/2] drm/amd/display: Add disclaimer to BW and DML code provided by HW

Harry Wentland harry.wentland at amd.com
Wed Nov 29 20:55:51 UTC 2017


This code can sometimes look troubling but we trust it as it comes from
HW teams with a guarantee of correctness. Add a note to these files to
explain this.

v2: thing -> things
