The goal of my patchset was to be aligned with DRM / KMS development and 
to offer
the possibility to make a correct video playback on STiH407/STiH410 
platform.
Our milestone is the 4.8 for that.

Currently people need these patches to work.
I'm not sure it's a good time to re-evaluate the whole thing.

Is it possible to re-evaluate later ?

Best regards,
Gabriel
