Yes. Now you ask Dave Airlie <airlied@xxxxxxxxxx> to fix it. If that
does not work, you ask him to fix it, in less polite words. If that
does not work, you verify that reverting
e7d6f7d708290da1b7c92f533444b042c79412e0 fixes it for you, then ask
Daniel Vetter and Jani Nikula to revert it. If they fail to do that,
you go all the way up to Linus.

Good luck ;-),
Pavel
