Re: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] hw/display contains files named *_template.h. These are included many times with different values of the DEPTH macro. However, only the DEPTH == 32 case is used. Removed support for DEPTH != 32 in the template headers and in the file that include them.

You'd have to follow the other thread to see if the patch was accepted
or not. Even if it isn't, etiquette is generally that it'd be rude to
not allow them a chance to spin their own v2/revision.

So if your patch was sent later than theirs, it's likely this one won't
be considered, correct.
