I have to carry the original patch [1] because DRM maintainers doesn't seem
to apply that AFAIK. Jon, would you like to apply this patch before the
merge window in case DRM people don't apply this either?

This patch is based on docs-next as gitlab.freedesktop.org is in migration
maintenance.

The DRM folks manage their own docs.  I'm certainly not going to
circumvent them during -rc7 for a patch like this.
