If you've not been able to test, and there are no more objections by EOD today, I will merge this to the drm-misc-fixes branch. > > > --- > > v2: per Arnd: Moved dma_buf_release() above to avoid forward declaration; > > removed dentry_ops check. > > --- <snip> Best, Sumit. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
