I did some more digging up on the panel_bridge migration.

Dmitry has posted this towards december last year

https://patches.linaro.org/project/dri-devel/patch/20211207222901.988484-3-dmitry.baryshkov@linaro.org/


and I had given my R-b on this already in Jan.

I am not sure why this change was dropped OR was not part of msm-next
already.

Dmitry, any reason this change was left out so long and why the R-b was
not retained and this was reposted?

From what i can see the change looks identical.

Thanks
