Non-trivial patch with no description -> not even looking, sorry. You
can't possibly propose a change to the core of a subsystem and not
bother explaining why this change is needed or what purpose it serves.

(And yes I know there's some information in patch 0/2, but that's not
going to make it into git, so it will be lost. Commits should be self-
sufficient, not only the implementation, but also the description.)

I would also suggest trimming the To and Cc lists. I can't really see
how linux-media and dri-devel are relevant here for example.
