Hi John.

So, IMO, the best is to keep it on staging for a while, until those
remaining bugs gets solved.
I'm not sure I see all of these as compelling for pushing it in via
staging. And I suspect in the process of submitting the patches for
review folks may find the cause of some of the problems you list here.
There is a tendency to forget drivers in staging, and with the almost
constant refactoring that happens in the drm drivers we would end up
fixing this driver when a bot trigger an error.
So IMO we need very good reasons to go in via staging.
