I don't think this patch will be very useful, because it won't fix the
device's display orientation without the previous patch it came with,
titled "drm/i915/opregion: add support for mailbox #5 EDID"
(e35d8762b04f89f9f5a188d0c440d3a2c1d010ed); while I'd like both to be
added, I'd prefer if we waited a few more weeks to make sure it does not
cause regressions.

My advice is to drop this patch from all stable kernels for now.

Regards,

Anisse
