Wait, that's expected, but it is not what was written. Claim was HDMIRX
driver depends *build time* ("don't even compile").

There is no school saying DTS is allowed to be in the middle.

Other schools are indeed saying that seeing DTS is good and
recommendation is to post it separate and provide a link. That's way you
avoid DTS being pulled by Greg, media or networking.
