Thanks for reconsidering.

I quickly checked out your linux-gpio and it only has patch 2 to implement
the gpio. We also need patch 1 (but with the leak Thierry spotted fixed).
Should we drop Shobit's patch until that's done?

Wrt merging the 4.1 window on the drm side is pretty much closed so I
think I'll have to postpone the i915 side to 4.2 anyway. Luckily there's
no direct depencies because we look up everything dynamically, so patches
can go in in any order.

Cheers, Daniel
