Ohh, good idea, I thought Linus had added a stable tag, but that is not
the case. Adding Greg as well and making things explicit:

@Greg: you might want to add 3628e0383dd349 ("Reapply "drm/qxl: simplify
qxl_fence_wait"") to all branches that received 07ed11afb68d94 ("Revert
"drm/qxl: simplify qxl_fence_wait"") (which afaics went into v6.8.7,
v6.6.28, v6.1.87, and v5.15.156).

Ciao, Thorsten
