Yeah I asked the maintainer for this driver for an ack, the other patches
look good, will merged them as soon as I have the answer for this one
here.

Mamta, since you'll have a few things merged already with these I think
it's a good time to start looking into bigger tasks and figuring out what
you might want to do in your internship:

https://dri.freedesktop.org/docs/drm/gpu/todo.html

Since this todo list is very unstructured it's best to discuss a bit over
irc what you would want to, and what makes sense as an internship.

Thanks, Daniel
