Hi Matt, For cross-subsystem changes such as this, it makes sense to Cc all relevant maintainers, especially if there have been previous comments to earlier revisions. Please, do include and keep a reference to the userspace portion of the changes when you suggest new uAPI to be added. At least I have some trouble trying to track down the relevant interface consumer here. I'm unsure how much sense it makes to commence with detailed i915 review if we will be blocked by lack of userspace after that? I'm assuming you've read through [1] already.
