NOTE: This series creates checkpatch warnings against v6.7-rc1 and
complains that it cannot find ti,am62-gpu or img,img-axe which
has been merged in drm tree for next. This is clean in linux-next
for a few weeks now. Given the number of people who would really
like to see it in v6.8-rc1 to continue the work towards enabling a
opensource graphics support in the tree without carried patches and
work on next set of features on display and graphics, and given the
real low risk of this NOT making to linus-master, we are making an
specific exception here for this time around. So, please keep a watch
on drm-next and if for any reason the support is dropped going to
linus's tree in the merge window or before, let this chain know with
appropriate maintainers so that we can take corrective actions.

I have applied the following to branch ti-k3-config-next on [1].

[1/2] arm64: defconfig: enable DRM_POWERVR
      commit: e8779517788fa0f3d04840cb7d4121d3df8dfd54

And the following to branch ti-k3-dts-next on [1].

[2/2] arm64: dts: ti: k3-am62-main: Add GPU device node
      commit: a5683d26e09e46362fb3fa87e834cf7073b6a2ec

Thank you!

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent up the chain during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a relevant bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.
