I'm not sure what you mean with "a ton of HDMI related regressions", are
you referring to all people hit by this bug, or that there are other
HDMI bugs as well?

Anyway, this bug kind of overshadows all other HDMI bugs. So if there
are other HDMI bugs as well, I feel we still need to get this one fixed
first and out there, and then see what new HDMI bugs come in after that.
And if we then find something that hits many, I'll try to look into it
and see if I can fix it. From the testing done *before* this bug went
into the kernel, I don't think there was anything that looked like
hitting many, but I admit not having looked thoroughly enough to be sure.
