Just to make it extra clear: regardless of how you bring up your driver
implementation, without an IGT test and real-world open-source user-space
patches that make use of the new prop, your patches *cannot* be merged.

If you're planning to add support for the new prop to an open-source KMS
client, please add a link to the patches in your kernel submission. If
you don't have plans to use the new prop in an open-source KMS client,
let us know and we can discuss what the best candidate would be.

(For the record, modeset doesn't count as a real-world user-space usage: it's
just a toy implementation, just a test tool.)
