Re: [PATCH] drm/fsl-dcu: set DPMS off before initializing connector

Hi Stefan,

Thank you for the patch.

I notice you have changed the subject line. I'm not sure if the new wording is 
better, as this patch doesn't set DPMS to off, it instead skips setting it 
manually. How about "drm/fsl-dcu: Don't set connector DPMS property manually" 
or "drm/fsl-dcu: Don't set DPMS property before initializing connector" ?

Additionally, would you mind retaining the authorship of the patch I have 
originally submitted ?

Oops, I had missed that, sorry.
