Almost there....
I have all the preparation patches on dri-devel, with positive
feedback on most.
And locally I have updated all get_modes() to take drm_connector as
argument.
A few drivers access drm_panel->connector, still need to look into this.
And then for drm_panel_attach(), drm_panel_detach() - so far they are
kept but changed to take a drm_device*.
Just sharing this so you do not jump at it and duplicate the work.
It will take a little time before I can invest time in this again.
Will post patches when something is ready for review.
Sam
