The wip branches are not stable. I'll be sending out a pull request for 4.16 in the next day or two and that branch (drm-next-4.16) will be stable. > How would you like to handle the merge?

If you want to send patches against amd-staging-drm-next, I can pull them into our system and include them in my next pull request after we've tested them internally. At that point, you can either pull my stable branch or wait until it gets into Dave's drm-next branch. Alex
