Starting with 6.8-rc1 the internal display sometimes fails to come up on
machines like the Lenovo ThinkPad X13s and the logs indicate that this
is due to a regression in the DRM subsystem [1].

This series fixes a race in the pmic_glink_altmode driver which was
exposed / triggered by the transparent DRM bridges rework that went into
6.8-rc1 and that manifested itself as a bridge failing to attach and
sometimes triggering a NULL-pointer dereference.

To clarify, I only applied patch 1 to drm-misc-fixes

Ok, but can you please not do that? :)

These patches should go in through the same tree to avoid conflicts.

I discussed this with Bjorn and Dmitry the other day and the conclusion
was that it was easiest to take all of these through DRM.

I only applied patch 1, which is a standalone fix and goes into a separate tree,
for the next patches it would be indeed simpler for them to go via drm-misc when
they are properly acked.

With Vinod acking the PHY patches, I believe you have what you need to
merge the whole series now?
