I think this patch was added to allow backporting of another patch:
drm-meson-fix-missing-component-unbind-on-bind-error.patch

Unfortunately this breaks the build as old kernels (5.4 and older)
don't have AFBC support yet. That build failure has been:
Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@xxxxxxxxx>
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202303310016.tc4BlcbT-lkp@xxxxxxxxx/

I think that there are few to no meson users on 5.4 or older kernels.
Can you please drop these patches from the 5.4 and 4.19 backport queue?


Thank you,
Martin
