The patch this is "fixing" is in mainline so theoretically this should
land in drm-misc-fixes, but it gets messy because it would need to be
adapted because commit 1e0f66420b13 ("drm/display: Introduce a DRM
display-helper module") isn't in mainline. Since this doesn't feel
urgent, I'm landing this in drm-misc/drm-misc-next.
