Hmm, actually not. Either drm-intel-fixes branch, or Linus' master.

Daniel, 'git tag --contains 0c96c65b48fba3ffe9822a554cbc0cd610765cd5'
says the commit is upstream since v3.7-rc1, and you backmerged v3.7-rc2
to drm-intel-next-queued with c2fb7916927e989ea424e61ce5fe617e54878827,
but the adjusted_mode fix is nowhere to be seen. Did something go wrong
with the backmerge, or am I missing something?


BR,
Jani.
