Yup, once drm is frozen for features we push drm-misc-next-fixes to
for-linux-next, but the main branch drm-misc-next is still open (but will
be delayed to the subsequent kernel merge window). That's why the "where
do I apply a bugfix" diagram in our docs isn't that simply (if you pick
the wrong branch it's going to be one kernel release too late). This
freeze generally happans around -rc6/7 or so, a bit ahead of when the
merge windo opens.

iow the above stuff is queued for 5.8, and should show up in linux-next
right after -rc1 is out.
