Awesome, Jani's patches landed in drm-next. As discussed I'd like to
merge this into drm-misc, to be able to synchronize the gpu.tmpl->rst
conversion with ongoing drm work. Can I just pull your branch, or do
you want me to pull a special tag? With that I can start wreaking
havoc ;-)

Also we need to coordinate the merge window order. I think as long as
I only pull from your tree for the 4.8 cycle (there shouldn't be any
conflicts in the conversion itself, as long as we only touch gpu.rst
in drm-misc) that would work if drm-next lands after doc-next.

Dave, would that be ok with you too?

Thanks, Daniel
