[PATCH 0/3] drm/scheduler: preparation for load balancing

Only a few more style nit picks:

Patches #1 and #2 need a commit message. A one liner why we do this 
should be fine.

On Patch #3 you have a couple of places like this:
> -	r = drm_sched_entity_init(&ring->sched, &adev->mman.entity,
> -				  rq, NULL);
> +	r = drm_sched_entity_init(&adev->mman.entity,
> +				  &rq, 1, NULL);
If I'm not completely mistaken that could be written on one line now and 
still be shorter than 80 characters.

Those are not major issues, so patches are Reviewed-by: Christian König 
<christian.koenig at amd.com> either way.

If neither Lucas nor Eric object I'm going to pick them those patches up 
on Friday.

Thanks for the help,
Christian.
