Hi,

the email goes out a bit late, as -rc6 has already been tagged for a few 
days. This means that drm-misc-next-fixes is now open for bug fixes, as 
drm-next is in feature freeze until the next -rc1 comes out.

Some rules of thumb on where to land your patch:

    * if your patch fixes a bug in upstream, please put it into 
drm-misc-fixes,

    * if your patch fixes a bug in drm-next, please put it into 
drm-misc-next-fixes,

    * anything else, especially new features, should go into drm-misc-next.

The flow chart is at [1].

The transition from/to drm-misc-fixes-next sometimes results in patches 
that are applied to the wrong tree and get stuck there for a long time. 
If you have fixes in drm-misc-next that must go into drm-next soon, 
please cherry-pick them into drm-misc-next-fixes. We have

    dim cherry-pick

to help you with that.

Best regards
Thomas
