Hi Brandon,

Is Jim Shargo no longer able to follow-up with these anymore? Can you
reach out to him? Maybe he's on holiday/vacation at this point?

If you decide to follow-up we need a v3 -- and possibly a few more, but
I'd just focus on getting the ConfigFS infrastructure in, addressing
current comments, re-base on top of drm-misc as they do not apply
anymore, and further polishing the patches.

After that gets in, I'd then focus of getting on expanding on it and
getting hot-plug. You'd need also some i-g-t tests for that.

There's also bunch of i-g-t tests sitting in a MR but those need to be 
posted to igt-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx rather than on gitlab. We'd need
that in as well.
