** Description changed: [Impact] We need to support new hardware from AMD and Intel, but backporting support to oem-5.13 is very laborous and prone to errors. [Fix] - There only sane way to add a better base for the new hw is by syncing the whole drivers/gpu/drm directory from current 5.14. We also need to update drivers/dma-buf and include a minor abi revert for NVIDIA. + The only sane way to add a better base for the new hw is by syncing the whole drivers/gpu/drm directory from current 5.14.

[Test case] Boot current and new hw from AMD & Intel with the new kernel, and also test that NVIDIA dkms still builds.
