The patch below does not apply to the 6.6-stable tree. If someone wants it applied there, or to any other stable or longterm tree, then please email the backport, including the original git commit id to stable@vger.kernel.org.
To reproduce the conflict and resubmit, you may use the following commands:
git fetch https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/ linux-6.6.y git checkout FETCH_HEAD git cherry-pick -x 32dce6b1949a696dc7abddc04de8cbe35c260217
This works for me without conflicts. Are there git configs which might influence this? The only noticeable thing is that the position of the DRM_DEBUG_DP_MST_TOPOLOGY_REFS entry shifted 82 lines down. I looked at the history of drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig and the config DRM_DEBUG_DP_MST_TOPOLOGY_REFS block hasn't changed since v5.10. So I would expect the cherry-pick to work.
Having said all that I don't know how important it is to have this in older stable releases when nobody noticed it before. The issue presents itself only with out-of-tree rust DRM drivers. I don't expect that anyone will try to backport those to old stable releases.
I'm fine with skipping this commit for stable releases for 6.6 and older and won't post backports.
