When you repost this, please take a look at the git commit log history
and make yours similar.  Specifically, the subject should start with a
capital letter, and the body should be rewrapped to fill 75
characters.

Please contrast this with the existing VGA arbiter.  See
Documentation/gpu/vgaarbiter.rst.  It sounds like this may overlap
with the VGA arbiter functionality, so this should explain why we need
both and how they interact.
