Hey Tejun,

Thanks for this again.  I've just made some changes to the nv50 display
bottom half handling that these will conflict with, they'll hit the
nouveau tree next week.

I'll push the still-relevant bits of your nouveau patch through the
nouveau tree for the 2.6.39-rc1 merge window.  That ok?

Thanks,
Ben.
