My wrong.

I had some old codepaths in my out-of-tree stuff (sorry
the only thing that makes the hardware work...).

I was using the old drm_fbdev_cma_init() which isn't
as helpful as the new drm_fb_cma_fbdev_init() but
as the old function is still there it all just "worked"
except for this...

Theres is some confusion with these similarly named
functions :D

Sorry for the fuzz, I fixed my patch set to use the new
function now.

Let's just drop this patch.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
