dmesg of kernel 5.1-rc3

Hi All,

I figured out, that the VLC player doesn't play videos anymore since the RC2 of
kernel 5.1. VLC plays videos with the RC1 of kernel 5.1 without any problems.
The issue is between the RC1 and the RC2.

I tested the VLC 3.0.4 on Fienix and VLC 2.2.2 on ubuntu MATE 16.04.6 LTS on
some PowerPC machines with Radeon graphics cards (open source Radeon driver).

VLC error messages:

[100ea580] ts demux warning: first packet for pid=1104 cc=0xe
[100ea580] ts demux warning: first packet for pid=1102 cc=0x4
[100ea580] ts demux warning: first packet for pid=1101 cc=0x8
[10109218] core decoder warning: can't get output picture
[10109218] avcodec decoder warning: disabling direct rendering
[10109218] core decoder warning: can't get output picture

----

There aren't many DRM updates between the RC1 and RC2. PLEASE test the RC3 with
VLC and the open source Radeon driver on your machines. You will see, that VLC
can't play videos anymore.

Which update between the RC1 and RC2 could be responsible for the VLC issue?

Thanks,
Christian
