Sorry, I don't understand this part.
if the FEs used on Tegra have the nonatomic property set to zero,
nothing will be propagated really.
This patch was required on the Intel side, because ALL FEs are nonatomic
but some BEs are not, so I had issues when connecting a nonatomic FE to
an atomic BE. See e.g.
