I have 4 patches in git://people.freedesktop.org/~danvet/drm fixes-stuff but I couldn't test them yet since no dp mst here and I didn't find anything that would ship faster than 1-2 weeks yet. I'll try to get some other people here to test it meanwhile too.
I've tried pulling in your patches from fixes-stuff, onto Linus's tree (without Linus's fix), and the good news is that I'm no longer crashing on boot.
The *bad* news is that (a) it breaks the external monitor attached to the docking station completely (this was working with Linus's patch), and (b) it's triggering a LOCKDEP failure.
So even though Linus's patch wasn't supposed to work, I think I'm going to back to it....
Ok I updated fixes-stuff with just 2 patches which seem to be enough to fix it. Plus a patch to convert Linus' hack into something we can keep plus a drive-by WARNING fix in mst that got in the way for me.
Seems to work here in getting rid of the Oops. If this tests out for you too I'll send a pull to Linus.
Thanks, Daniel
