I think I've addressed George's comments on the altp2m VGA logdirty
issue and I'm ready to send the current version of the patch, however it
depends on this one.

Is the above patch uncontroversial enough to find its way into staging
soon (in which case I should probably wait until it's in to send out the
other patch), or should I perhaps create a series of two patches and
send that out? Or is it maybe customary to proceed somehow else in a
situation like this?


Thank you,
Razvan
