Subject: Re: [PATCH] i915: Add module option to support VGA arbiter on HD devices

Sorry for butting in, but as a concerned user, let me add my two cents.

I have just about enough expertise in kernel to port this patch to
newer kernel versions. I have absolutely no idea on how to fix this
proper. And porting (in my case) is time-consuming and error-prone.

I wish this patch was included into mainline kernel, since it doesn't
seem like proper fix is anywhere in forseeable future, and I need to
get things done now. Preferably without wasting effort on
forward-porting.

Thanks.
