Similarly to drm/fsl-dcu driver this one never made it upstream.
I was under impression that entire series will be either accepted or not
but looks like fixes for separate drivers were pulled via separate trees.

Anyways I like this patch for ARC PGU and may confirm it works
perfectly fine on top of 4.18.10 so should I pull this into my tree and
send a pull-request to David or maybe all not yet accepted patches from the
series may go through the same tree?
