Hence for both patches:

Yeah I'm with Daniel, I like this one, I can definitely build the drm
buffer sharing layer on top of this.

How do we see this getting merged? I'm quite happy to push it to Linus
if we don't have an identified path, though it could go via a Linaro
tree as well.

so feel free to add:

Thanks Daniel and Dave!

I guess we can start with staging for 3.3, and see how it shapes up. I
will post the latest patch version pretty soon.
not sure about staging, but could make sense to mark as experimental.
Thanks, I will mark it experimental for the first version; we can
remove that once it is more widely used and tested.

Arnd, Dave: do you have any preference on the path it takes to get
merged? In my mind, Linaro tree might make more sense, but I would
leave it upto you gentlemen.
Looks like Dave is making some progress on drm usage of buffer sharing
between gpu's.. if that is ready to go in at the same time, it might
be a bit logistically simpler for him to put dmabuf in the same pull
req. ?I don't have strong preference one way or another, so do what is
collectively simpler ;-)
:) Right - I am quite happy for it to get merged in either ways :)
BR,
