Re: [1/3] drm/tinydrm/Kconfig: Remove menuconfig DRM_TINYDRM

[Noralf TrÃnnes]

Hi drm-misc maintainers,

I have just applied a patch to drm-misc-next that as it turns out should
have been applied to -fixes for this -rc cycle.

Should I cherry pick it to drm-misc-next-fixes?
(I know there's a flowchart in the docs but I've never really understood
it.)

Noralf.
