In short, don't shoot > the messenger. I honestly don't know much at all about DRM. But I do see this problem on 4.19.y also (and probably 4.14.y), now that this patch was included there. I'm fine with trying to "fix forward" in mainline, but unfortunately, it's usually quite difficult to get Greg to drop things from -stable, especially when the regression is already pushed to a release. That's why I'd propose a revert first, which can be sent back to -stable while things are figured out. I'm also willing to test any updates, if you have better suggestions. > >> I plan to submit a revert which I hope can go to 4.20 as well as > >> -stable.

My tests currently don't have the full Chrome UI working, since Chrome OS has some basic graphics API requirements and there's no Mali GPU driver upstream (so I get relegated to our splash screen and console manager, frecon, instead). But some people have a software-rendered llvmpipe backend working, and they likely would see the same problem. Maybe common Linux distros treat "no GPU" too simplistically and don't really exercise the DRM framework much. I dunno.
