Re: [PATCH RESEND FOR CI] drm/i915: Fix races on fbdev

[Lukas Wunner <lukas@wunner.de>]

Hi Damien, Hi Daniel,

I've submitted the patch below for the third time now in an attempt
to get CI to test it, again to no avail. This time I didn't set the
In-Reply-To header and only submitted it as a single patch instead
of as a series because I expected this might confuse CI.

Nevertheless CI misclassified it under "Series" instead of "Patches",
reports that the series consists of 0 patches and doesn't test it:
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/4068/

Earlier attempts:
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/3453/
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/3126/

Sorry, I give up.

Best regards,

Lukas
