Only basic support is provided here and as such lots of features are missing. This series only adds the GPU node for the Exynos850 SoC dtsi, but keeps it disabled, so it stays disabled currently on E850-96 board (The only user of the Exynos850 SoC dtsi upstream).

Does not provide support for temperature throttling, DVFS, power domains, governor support, boosting and voltage control. Once PMIC is properly implemented, support will hopefully increase. However, the panfrost driver probes, the Mali-G52 GPU initializes and the core clock is set-up. Testing for this patch was done on a device not currently supported by linux, the Galaxy A21s. After enabling this node for that device locally, I was able to test and confirm basic GPU functionality. As of now, this patch has no users which have tested GPU capabilities and so the node has been set to "disabled".

When maintainers apply your patches they collect all tags from the latest patch version themselves. So you only need to collect the tags from the previous version review if you want to submit the next version for some actual reasons (not just for merely collecting the tags).
