This patch has not been applied.
Grr, that's the danger of trying to split changes which cross between subsystems. I hate todays fragmented nature of kernel development, it's really a nightmare.
I'm not sure how this can be resolved now, I asked Dave Airlie to pull the next set of patches which include the one adding the SAD helper; he's probably already pulled that for -next, so to pull out just that patch and try to get it merged into -rc is going to be far from nice, and will probably introduce conflicts.
Oh, that's bad that the DRM part slipped from 4.2 merge. OTOH, the commit in sound side adds a code enabled only when a new Kconfig is set, and currently there is no one setting this Kconfig. (and it's no selectable). So there should be no breakage as of now.
thanks,
