Please split these out to a separate patch. Can't speak for others, but the patch looks like it'll be conflicts galore and a problem to manage if merged in one big lump.
Yes, it would be nice to have the amd patch separate as well.
I'll split the AMD and i915 although I am not sure if it is sense to split such trivial patch per each driver.
Thanks.
See MAINTAINERS, many of the drivers are maintained in the same drm-misc repo, and it makes no difference to split those.
In general it's, well, trivial to split up patches like this per driver or repo, but not splitting it up generates extra busywork in managing conflicts until some common merge/backmerge happens. We just want to apply the patch and forget about it, instead of dealing with a trivial whitespace cleanup many times over.
BR, Jani.
