Great! I've posted the patch as a series, hopefully it should be in mesa.git

This is not the proper forum to discuss that. Come join us in #nouveau @
irc.freenode.net and we can see if there's overlap between your skillset/time
commitment/etc, and things that would be helpful for nouveau. Or start a
discussion at nouveau at lists.freedesktop.org if you dislike IRC.
