Subject: Re: [Intel-gfx] [PATCH v6 3/4] drm/i915: Use new CRC debugfs API

Hi Tomeu,

Just a couple of nitpicks. Nothing that has to be fixed or (if you
agree) cannot be done on top/later on.

Even if the frames are only skipped in the new code, it doesn't
explain why one'd need it in the first place and/or how it isn't
required with the current code. Might be worth poking the original
authors and/or adding a big WARNING/NOTE/XXX/HACK to make things more
prominent.

Huge thanks for this.

Looks like newly introduced whitespace changes, should have been part of 1/4 ?
