On the series:

Acked-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>

But also, I really don't want to be the gatekeeper for "is xe ready for
merging", so at least for the last two patches I think an ack from Danilo
that there's indeed a rough consensus/plan is much more important than my
own. The first two don't need that, because there was no "build dri-devel
consensus" aspect to those.

And for the sched side I guess an ack from Christian or maybe some of the
other in-flight drivers (Lina or Boris?), with maybe an ack from Danilo
for the long running compute stuff (or whoever cares about that, I don't
think amd is working on extracting the amdkfd trickery, but maybe they
need the sched support when they add real compute to the render driver
too) is again much more important than me dropping an ack from the
sidelines.

Cheers, Sima
