Hi :
I alwaygs used scripts/get_maintainers.pl to get the recipient list.I don't know why miss maintainers for a given piece of code.

tiantao@ubuntu:~$ git send-email -to eric@xxxxxxxxxx -to airlied@xxxxxxxx -to daniel@xxxxxxxx -to sumit.semwal@xxxxxxxxxx -to christian.koenig@xxxxxxx -to dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -to linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -to linux-media@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -to linaro-mm-sig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx mailline/drm/drm/0001-drm-vc4-Deleted-the-drm_device-declaration.patch --suppress-cc=all

drm_modeset_lock.h already declares struct drm_device, so there's no
need to declare it in vc4_drv.h

Just an aside, when submitting patches please use
scripts/get_maintainers.pl to generate the recipient list. Looking through
past few patches from you it seems fairly arbitrary and often misses the
actual maintainers for a given piece of code, which increases the odds the
patch will get lost a lot.

E.g. for this one I'm only like the 5th or so fallback person, and the
main maintainer isn't on the recipient list.

Cheeers, Daniel
