Thanks Dave,

These all look great, the EMITED one has potential to regress
something by fixing it,
but I think it might actually make things better, I'll push all of
these to Linus asap as
they all fix real bugs. I've put them into my drm-fixes branch and I'll try and
re-review and get some testing tomorrow when I'm more awake.

Dave.
