This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

drm/meson: Fix error handling when afbcd.ops->init fails

to the 5.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git%3Ba=su...

The filename of the patch is: drm-meson-fix-error-handling-when-afbcd.ops-init-fai.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory.

If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let stable@vger.kernel.org know about it.

I think this patch was added to allow backporting of another patch: drm-meson-fix-missing-component-unbind-on-bind-error.patch

Unfortunately this breaks the build as old kernels (5.4 and older) don't have AFBC support yet. That build failure has been: Reported-by: kernel test robot lkp@intel.com Link: https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202303310016.tc4BlcbT-lkp@intel.com/

I think that there are few to no meson users on 5.4 or older kernels. Can you please drop these patches from the 5.4 and 4.19 backport queue?

Dropped from 4.19 and 5.4 now, thanks.
