Yeah, cross subsystem topic branches aren't rocket science, we have the
entire process documented and scripted on the drm side. Hairy depencies
really aren't a reason to not submit patches, we've got this :-)

But 4.12 is done anyway on the drm side, so will get delayed to 4.13 no
matter what. Still would be good to get the patches reviewed as early as
possible.
