I'm not too fussed about who pushes Brian's framework patches into
drm-next so I don't mind at all you merging your addition. Just wanted
to make sure we're on the same page (didn't know you're going to send
your series this week).

I also feel I need to appologise for my delay in getting the i-g-t
patches into shape, I've been splitting myself between various other
tasks, not all kernel related.
