Ok, I merged all the non-amd ones from your latest round to drm-misc. Two
small nitpicks:

- for cocci patches I prefer if you include the (simplified, if it's a
  large one) semantic patch in the commit message. Cocci is really badly
  documented, it's good to see new examples of how.

- threading seems funny in your series. Please generate mail threads using
  git format-patch --cover-letter $sha1_range and send them out using git
  send-email. That'll get all the details right. Also pls don't reply with
  new patches to an old series, that hides the patches and confuses the
  discussion. Just start a new thread (even when the patches are on the
  same or similar topic).

Thanks, Daniel
