I added a request to the panel-edp patch that probably applies to all of the panel patches requesting a comment next to the old calls in get_modes(). I assume that all but patch #8 ought to land through drm-misc. I'm happy to help commit them once everyone is happy. If the Mediatek maintainer(s) want to Ack patch #8 I can land that in drm-misc too. If we want something fancier like an immutable branch you'll probably have to get someone involved that's got a higher drm pay grade than me. ;-) -Doug
