Should be landind soon, yes. Probably not for 4.7, that's closed now, but
I can still pick it up into drm-misc right away when it's ready. Open
review comments are all just small things, you could pick the latest
version to start prototyping a conversion and there shouldn't be any
surprises when you rebase onto the merged version.
