Only now stumbled over the full thread, but the drm patch is already
queued up for at least 4.13 (Dave was out and all that). I guess we could
try to cherry-pick through stable.

Personally I don't care at all for PDF builds, the only thing we do in our
autobuilder is html, same for me locally when building docs. That tends to
keep working :-)

Also, 0-day only tests the htmlbuild. Maybe you want to ping Fu and ask
him to add the pdfdocs to his build targets?
