If you have a lot of patches already rebasing is kinda discouraged. There
might be other stuff that's conflicting and then making your entire tree
non-bisectable (maybe just on one platform that you missed in testing).

In that case just send out a pull for drm-next and include the merge
resolution in the pull request so Dave/I can double-check we did it right.
