This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled drm/repaper: Reduce temporary buffer size in repaper_fb_dirty() to the 6.5-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-repaper-reduce-temporary-buffer-size-in-repaper_.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.5 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit aed8f21bd799f726691ee6db590290b6e3e7e0ba Author: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Mar 17 09:18:30 2022 +0100 drm/repaper: Reduce temporary buffer size in repaper_fb_dirty() [ Upstream commit fedf429e071f6dbbe7a69dfc342492e037692018 ] As the temporary buffer is no longer used to store 8-bit grayscale data, its size can be reduced to the size needed to store the monochrome bitmap data.
