Pushed to drm-intel-fixes, thanks for the patch and review.

Sorry for the delay, I failed to notice the patch had been reviewed. It
would have helped if the patch had the Reviewed-by: tag already in
place, or the reviewer (or someone else pointing at the review) had
replied with the Reviewed-by: tag. I spend very little time looking at
individual patches, especially if the appearance is that there's
discussion going on.

BR,
Jani.
