Nothing crazy in here I suppose, I somewhat wonder why you went through
the trouble, but meh.
If you are asking why I have proposed this patchset, then the answer is
simple, 1st I've tried to find a way to move internal i915 helper to
core (see patch 7).
Then I was looking for possible other users of this helper. And
apparently there are many of them, patches 3-7 shows some.
You want me to take this through te locking tree (for the next cycle,
not this one) where I normally take atomic things or does someone else
want this?
If you could take it I will be happy.
