No worries.
I checked the merged series and I think some bits from this series are
still applicable:
* Simplify the NULL verification by considering only the return of
connector_state_get_mode(), which gets rid of the redundant
'new_conn_state->crtc' check, but also covers the additional checks
already performed in that function.
* Update the newly introduced test case to also verify
{mode|connectors|active}_changed.
I could send those as v4, but probably it makes sense to drop this
series and start a new one - please let me know if you have a preference
here.
Thanks,
Cristian
