[PATCH 0/4] Fix DP busy wait and defer disabling overlay plane

[Dan MacDonald]

Hi Philipp

I moved house again on Sunday - that is the second time in two months.
I won't bore you with the details but it means I've not had much time
to myself recently and why I've not been able to test this patch.

As I was saying previously, the only way I can reliably test this is
to do it 'the Arch way' by creating a new kernel package with your
patch rolled in. Doing it that way means I can't directly use your git
repo in the PKGBUILD but instead we need to create a patch that can be
applied against
https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/testing/linux-4.11-rc3.tar.xz
which is what is downloaded and patched by the armv7-rc PKGBUILD as
feched from:

git clone https://github.com/archlinuxarm/PKGBUILDs.git

See the PKGBUILD under core/linux-armv7-rc. There is a short guide on
how Arch/ABS expects its patches to be formatted here:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Patching_in_ABS

I'm surprised I'm the only Arch user on this list - I thought someone
else would already have a dev kernel PKGBUILD for me but apparently
not?

If you really don't have time to create a patch against the latest rc
tarball I can give it a go but I can see me making a royal mess of it!
:)

Thanks
