Are all those dependencies in a topic branch somewhere?  Otherwise to
go in through vfio would mean we need to rebase our next branch after
drm is merged.  LPC is happening during this merge window, so we may
not be able to achieve that leniency in ordering.  Is the better
approach to get acks on the variant driver and funnel the whole thing
through the drm tree?  Thanks,
