Yeah, see my other reply. After -rc2 is out I'll send a drm-misc and
drm-intel pull to Dave, and then I'll ask Chris to regen the patch on top
of Dave's drm-next and stuff that into a topic branch. Since we don't yet
have users outside of drm that's probably the easiest (and only) way to
land this.
