Hi Wifi and AMDGPU maintainers,

Here is a pull-request for the platform-drivers-x86 parts of:

https://lore.kernel.org/platform-driver-x86/20231211100630.2170152-1-Jun.Ma2@xxxxxxx/

  From my pov the pdx86 bits are ready and the
platform-drivers-x86-amd-wbrf-v6.8-1 tag can be merged by you to merge
the wifi-subsys resp. the amdgpu driver changes on top.

The few comments I had for the amdgpu patches were addressed and I
honestly don't have time to take a detailed look at the general framework.

So perfectly fine to merge that stuff from my side. Alex or Mario might
have some additional comments, but I think they will give their go as well.

My feedback has been taken into account already, I'm happy with the
series now.

I'm a bit confused how exactly the drm/amd patches get applied though.
Is it like this:
1) immutable branch for platform-x86
2) immutable branch for platform-x86 merged into wlan-next
3) immutable branch for platform-x86 merged into drm-next?
4) wlan-next and drm-next come together for 6.8

Normally stuff from amd-staging-drm-next is put into the drm-next branch
and then merge through the drm.

amd-staging-drm-next tracks a much older tree so I'm thinking merging
the immutable branch for platform-x86 won't work.

Maybe the right answer is that the "immutable branch gets merged into
drm-next" and we just have some cherry-picks for all the commits into
amd-staging-drm-next so we can compile but Alex doesn't put them as part
of the next PR to drm-next.  When ASDN rebased to 6.8 or newer they
would drop off.

amd-staging-drm-next is just our development branch, the actual
amdgpu-next branch is:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/agd5f/linux/-/commits/drm-next
I'll merge the platform branch there and then apply the amdgpu patches on top.
For amd-staging-drm-next, we can just apply the whole set since that
branch is just for development so there won't be any conflicts with
upstream.


Got it, thanks.
