Yeah, ok I volunteer. Wanted to take that over for a while anyway.

Completely agree on merging it through drm-misc. Going to give my push 
rights a try today.

I've got a few more already reviewed TTM changes which are currently 
waiting to be pushed upstream where amdgpu has dependencies on.

Going to sync with Alex so he sends his pull requests with those changes 
to Dave after the merge of the depending changes.

If you want to object that just merging through the AMD tree would be 
simpler, I agree but I actually want to do this exercise at least once :)

Christian.
