This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
drm/meson: Fix error handling when afbcd.ops->init fails
to the 5.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git%3Ba=su...
The filename of the patch is: drm-meson-fix-error-handling-when-afbcd.ops-init-fai.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory.
If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let stable@vger.kernel.org know about it.
I think this patch was added to allow backporting of another patch: drm-meson-fix-missing-component-unbind-on-bind-error.patch
Unfortunately this breaks the build as old kernels (5.4 and older) don't have AFBC support yet. That build failure has been: Reported-by: kernel test robot lkp@intel.com Link: https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202303310016.tc4BlcbT-lkp@intel.com/
I think that there are few to no meson users on 5.4 or older kernels. Can you please drop these patches from the 5.4 and 4.19 backport queue?
Thank you, Martin
