Re: DRM: urgent v4.9-rc6 build regression: master build: 2 failures 1 warnings (v4.9-rc5-213-g961b708)

Hi, Arnd:

I've made a mistake that I've tried to build these patches on v4.9-rc1,
but I does not set CONFIG_DRM_MEDIATEK=y, therefore I didn't find out
these build fails. Now I fix the config problem, and I think I should
build these patches on latest kernel version even though patch's owner
test on old kernel version. I wish this flow would make things better.

It's ok that you just revert these two patches. I've fixed build fail
and will request pull later.

Regards,
CK
