Thanks, I tested v4.0-rc2 + the patch to disable IOMMU + the patch you
mentioned and the crash does not happen anymore in Peach Pit and Snow.

I know that I may sound like a broken record but could you please make
sure that your tree is included in linux-next?

That way the fix could be tested by all the machines that are testing
linux-next daily since right now Exynos will still be broken until you
send a pull request to the DRM maintainer.

So it would be nice to get the changes as soon as possible into -next
to avoid a recurrent error to mask other possible new issues.

Best regards,
Javier
