Hi James,
Thanks for revieweing. Note that the "wrong" order doesn't have to be a
real problem, there's other drivers which need this one too. But they
explain why in a comment. So if you change that, make sure you test it all
well to avoid surprises.
Testing (with lockdep enabled) would be really good here, can you try to
do that too?
Also, next patch is for drm/malidp, can you pls review that patch too?
Thanks, Daniel
