[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 10/12] drm/i915: Disable use of stolen area by User when Intel RST is present

Hi Ankitprasad,

just a quick heads-up, Rafael asked that the function name
acpi_dev_present() be changed, so there's now a commit queued
for Linux 4.7 to rename it to acpi_dev_found():

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/commit/?id=c68ae33e7fb4

It will therefore unfortunately be necessary that you respin
this patch with the new function name once the above-linked
commit has landed in Linus' tree (which I expect will happen
early in the merge window, sometime in mid-May).

My apologies for the inconvenience!

Lukas
