For that patch, do we need the change to screen_size in drm_fbdev_generic_helper_fb_probe()? I'm still not entirely clear. If it works without that change I think that's clearer for a minimal bugfix, if so can you send that out as v4 please? Also please Cc: Geert on whatever you're resubmitting, so he can test too and we can make sure it's still fixing the shmob issue he's seeing. And finally please include a link to this discussion here with a note that just reverting the screen_size changes is not enough: https://lore.kernel.org/dri-devel/ad44df29-3241-0d9e-e708-b0338bf3c623@189.cn/ Thanks a lot! -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation http://blog.ffwll.ch
