Hi Russell,

Cross tree with media has already been done on this cycle with the
dw-hdmi formats changes.

Nevertheless, please push your updated dw-hdmi cec patchset for tests
and review based on the latest drm-misc-next and hverkuil's HPD notifier
release.

I would like to run it on some Amlogic boards.
