This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled drm/client: Test for connectors before sending hotplug event to the 6.2-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: drm-client-test-for-connectors-before-sending-hotplu.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.2 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 06e7f9c5415a8a6c3cef1fdbc82a7198175cefa2 Author: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@xxxxxxx> Date: Wed Jan 25 21:04:06 2023 +0100 drm/client: Test for connectors before sending hotplug event [ Upstream commit c2bb3be64eb7182285846123219230375af61abd ] Test for connectors in the client code and remove a similar test from the generic fbdev emulation. Do nothing if the test fails. Not having connectors indicates a driver bug.
