My tree has always been "unstable", I have been rebasing it on top of
latest drm or drm-next in preparation for sending pull requests. I've hoped
that people don't depend on the linearity of my tree anyway and it hasn't
been an issue so far.

TBH, I should've based the latest update of my tree on drm-next anyway, I
just started at the time when it was at v5.0-rc1 so I thought it will not
matter.

Best regards,
Liviu
