Subject: Re: [Intel-gfx] [PATCH v11 0/5] Add driver for GSC controller

Hi,

Yes, the series doesn't need an update, but on the other hand I don't 
think we can update the config repo before the new config option is 
merged, which we can't do without first running CI with the config 
enabled, so we have a catch-22 situation. That's why I suggested that 
you resend the series with an additional debug patch that enables the 
new config option from within the i915 kconfig, so that CI runs properly 
on it, but clearly marking that patch as something that is for CI only 
and that we shouldn't merge.

We did the same for the mei-pxp config (here's an example: 
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/460925/?series=96181&rev=2).

The alternative would be to merge an update to i915-infra kconfig/debug 
before this series is merged and re-run CI on the existing series with 
the updated config, but as mentioned above not sure if that's allowed. 
If you can get it in then that's fine for me.

Daniele
