Thx. I noticed that this fix is still not in -next. I then investigated
and I found it was applied on Thursday last week here:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/msm/-/commits/msm-fixes?ref_type=heads
Makes me wonder: when will that patch go to a branch that is included in
-next? And when will it move on towards mainline?
