Subject: Re: [PATCH v6 0/3] drm/lsdc: add drm driver for loongson display
 controller

Hi Jingfeng,

Could you please keep me CCed for the for the whole thread when you respin
the patch? Cuz I'm maintain MIPS/LOONGSON64 stuff and I believe this series
is partially based on my work at Lemote.

I will help with reviewing and explain some Loongson64 specified issue 
if possible.

Thanks.
