SubjectRe: [GIT PULL] Re: [PATCH] drm: tda998x: mali-dp: hdlcd: refactor connector registration
Okay, I've queued this into my own for-next branch, along with the now
reviewed and tested set of tda998x patches that I sent out for comment
and testing.

I'm still hopeful that Dave's going to pull the initial patch at some
point... please?
