commit 054430e773c9a1e26f38e30156eff02dedfffc17 upstream.

Okay so Alan's patch handled the case where there was no registered fbcon,
however the other path entered in set_con2fb_map pit.

In there we called fbcon_takeover, but we also took the console lock in a couple
of places. So push the console lock out to the callers of set_con2fb_map,

this means fbmem and switcheroo needed to take the lock around the fb notifier
entry points that lead to this.

This should fix the efifb regression seen by Maarten.

commit e93a9a868792ad71cdd09d75e5a02d8067473c4e upstream.

I've still got lockdep warnings even after Alan's patch, and it seems that
yet more band aids are required to paper over similar paths for
unbind_con_driver() and unregister_con_driver().  After this hack, lockdep
warnings are finally gone.

commit 50e244cc793d511b86adea24972f3a7264cae114 upstream.

Adjust the console layer to allow a take over call where the caller
already holds the locks.  Make the fb layer lock in order.

This is partly a band aid, the fb layer is terminally confused about the
locking rules it uses for its notifiers it seems.

<title>fbcon: don't lose the console font across generic-&gt;chip driver switch</title>

commit ae1287865f5361fa138d4d3b1b6277908b54eac9 upstream.

If grub2 loads efifb/vesafb, then when systemd starts it can set the console
font on that framebuffer device, however when we then load the native KMS
driver, the first thing it does is tear down the generic framebuffer driver.

The thing is the generic code is doing the right thing, it frees the font
because otherwise it would leak memory. However we can assume that if you
are removing the generic firmware driver (vesa/efi/offb), that a new driver
*should* be loading soon after, so we effectively leak the font.

However the old code left a dangling pointer in vc-&gt;vc_font.data and we
can now reuse that dangling pointer to load the font into the new
driver, now that we aren't freeing it.

<title>vgacon/vt: clear buffer attributes when we load a 512 character font (v2)</title>

<id>urn:sha1:cc8641df0963f820e7462aa0f4e761808f6cc683</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 2a2483072393b27f4336ab068a1f48ca19ff1c1e upstream.

When we switch from 256-&gt;512 byte font rendering mode, it means the
current contents of the screen is being reinterpreted. The bit that holds
the high bit of the 9-bit font, may have been previously set, and thus
the new font misrenders.

The problem case we see is grub2 writes spaces with the bit set, so it
ends up with data like 0x820, which gets reinterpreted into 0x120 char
which the font translates into G with a circumflex. This flashes up on
screen at boot and is quite ugly.

A current side effect of this patch though is that any rendering on the
screen changes color to a slightly darker color, but at least the screen
no longer corrupts.

v2: as suggested by hpa, always clear the attribute space, whether we
are are going to or from 512 chars.

<title>Drivers: video: remove __dev* attributes.</title>

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option.  As a result, the __dev*
markings need to be removed.

This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata,
__devinitconst, and __devexit from these drivers.

Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me
in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

  The code 124 (0x7C, |) is rendered as a broken line in two
fonts, instead of a continuous line.  Some keyboards show a
"broken bar" on one of theirs keys, other show a (continuous)
"vertical line".
