Dave, mind sending me a pull request for drm fixes?

There's now at least these two:

  - "drm/radeon/aux: fix hpd assignment for aux bus"
  - "drm/radeon: use fixed PPL ref divider if needed"

that look like fairly fatal regressions when they affect somebody.

The fact that we already had *two* independent bugs be reported within
days of that last out-of-merge-window pull request makes me very
unhappy with the state of drm pulls.

So please make sure that future fixes really are *fixes*. For
regressions only. No more games like this.
The pll fallout is fixes for the initial feature that was in the merge window, Tuning plls for monitors is always a pain in the ass, the previous algorithm took a couple of kernels a few years back to get where it was, unfortunately
HDMI came along and showed up a bunch of its shortcomings. I'm happy
Alex and Christian are on top of things in terms of tracking regressions
and making sure they get fixed,

the AUX fix yes I'm a bit pissed off about myself, but I missed a pull
from a few
weeks ago, felt guilty, and maybe should have chosen the other path and let it
wait a merge,

Christian just sent me a -fixes pull with all of these in it and I'll
send it on to you
in a few mins.

Dave.

That patch also fixes a shimmering (water floating) issue on Radeon RV635 (Thinkpad T500)
1002:9591

Was this a long outstanding bug or a regression introduced with one of the recent patches?

Thanks for the info,
Christian.
Regression from 3.15-rc1 (still OK in -rc1, shimmering in -rc2)
