What happened to the DOMAIN_ATTR_GEOMETRY patchset

What happened to the DOMAIN_ATTR_GEOMETRY patchset

[Lucas Stach]

Hi Joerg and others,

sorry for not providing a proper thread reference, but I'm not
subscribed to this list long enough.

I wonder what happened to the DOMAIN_ATTR_GEOMETRY patchset. Did it got
dropped by accident or are there some reasons which are preventing this
from going in?

It would be really useful for the Tegra-DRM driver to have this
attribute to implement proper memory management.

Thanks,
Lucas

There was too much discussion around it and too little time in the last
cycle for me (was busy with other things). But I will post a new version
of this patch-set and then we'll see. I am confident that we can merge
this for v3.5.

I know, it is more or less required to make use of any GART-like IOMMU.
