For what the patch does there exists a drm_mode_remove() helper but it's static at drivers/gpu/drm/drm_connector.c and requires to be exported first. This probably looks like a subject for an independent for-next patch, if needed.
So you're saying this change will take two iterations of patches to ping pong the code?
Why not just send this as a two patch series?
- Export the symbol drm_mode_remove()
- This patch, but use the symbol.
Initially I wasn't sure if the exporting patch was worth moving the code around and in the end decided to make the current patch with a minimum of prerequisites.
But giving this a second glance, I see exporting the symbol would be technically better. I'll send out v2.
Thanks!
