Re: [RESEND RFC 00/18] drm/display/dp_mst: Drop Radeon MST support, make MST atomic-only

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Sorry for taking a while on respinning this! I've been busy with trying to
review as much nouveau patches as possible before we passed the deadline for
getting pulled into the kernel, since we've got quite a lot of pending patches
coming up. The pull deadline we had from Dave has passed at this point though,
so I should have a chance to respin this in the next few business days.
