Dear Mani,

Thank you for your reminder. I found two friends of Amlogic from the 
submission records and copied the email to them. And ask them to help 
test these two patches.

But I don't know if they are still employed, or do you know anyone to 
help with the test?





Dear yue.wang and hanjie.lin,

Could you help test these two patches? I don't know if it affects the 
normal function of your Root Port. If it works properly, please let me 
know. Thank you very much.

Best regards,
Hans
