The fix it now would simply be to apply Ira original patch now, but given that we are at -rc6 is this really a good time? And if we don't apply it now based on the quilt based -mm worflow it just seems a lot easier to apply it after my series. Unless we want to include it in the series, in which case I can do a quick rebase, we'd just need to make sure Andrew pulls it from -mm. _______________________________________________ Nouveau mailing list Nouveau@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/nouveau
