<id>urn:sha1:0ba2fa8cbd29278a180ac90bd66b2c0bbdeacc89</id>
<content type='text'>
Support the kernel's nomodeset parameter for all PCI-based fbdev
drivers that use aperture helpers to remove other, hardware-agnostic
graphics drivers.

The parameter is a simple way of using the firmware-provided scanout
buffer if the hardware's native driver is broken. The same effect
could be achieved with per-driver options, but the importance of the
graphics output for many users makes a single, unified approach
worthwhile.

With nomodeset specified, the fbdev driver module will not load. This
unifies behavior with similar DRM drivers. In DRM helpers, modules
first check the nomodeset parameter before registering the PCI
driver. As fbdev has no such module helpers, we have to modify each
driver individually.

The name 'nomodeset' is slightly misleading, but has been chosen for
historical reasons. Several drivers implemented it before it became a
general option for DRM. So keeping the existing name was preferred over
introducing a new one.

v2:
	* print a warning if a driver does not init (Helge)
	* wrap video_firmware_drivers_only() in helper

<content type='text'>
Remove firmware devices on the PCI bus, by calling
aperture_remove_conflicting_pci_devices() in the probe function of
each related fbdev driver. iSo far, most of these drivers did not
remove conflicting VESA or EFI devices, or outride failed for
resource conflicts (i.e., matroxfb.) This must have been broken
for quite some time.

The "edid" struct member is only used during probe() and it's freed
right away.  There is no point in storing a freed pointer for the
whole life of the driver.

<content type='text'>
Drivers should do only device-specific jobs. But in general, drivers using
legacy PCI PM framework for .suspend()/.resume() have to manage many PCI
PM-related tasks themselves which can be done by PCI Core itself. This
brings extra load on the driver and it directly calls PCI helper functions
to handle them.

Switch to the new generic framework by updating function signatures and
define a "struct dev_pm_ops" variable to bind PM callbacks. Also, remove
unnecessary calls to the PCI Helper functions along with the legacy
.suspend &amp; .resume bindings.

Now,
- savagefb_suspend() had a "pm_message_t" type parameter as per legacy
  PCI PM framework that got deprecated in generic.
- Rename the callback as savagefb_suspend_late() and preserve the
  parameter.
- Define 3 new callbacks as:
        * savagefb_suspend()
        * savagefb_freeze()
        * savagefb_hibernate()
  which in turn call savagefb_suspend_late() by passing appropriate value
  for "pm_message_t" type parameter.
- Bind the callbacks in "struct dev_pm_ops" type variable
  "savagefb_pm_ops".

savagefb_probe() calls savage_init_fb_info() that can successfully
allocate memory for info-&gt;pixmap.addr but then fail when
fb_alloc_cmap() fails. savagefb_probe() goes to label failed_init and
does not free allocated memory. It is not valid to go to label
failed_mmio since savage_init_fb_info() can fail during memory
allocation as well. So, the patch free allocated memory on the error
handling path in savage_init_fb_info() itself.

<id>urn:sha1:e31cf2f4ca422ac9b14ecc4a1295b8977a20f812</id>
<content type='text'>
Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.

The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once.  For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.

Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.

static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
        return (address &gt;&gt; PMD_SHIFT) &amp; (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}

static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
        return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}

These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.

For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.

These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.

This patch (of 12):

The linux/mm.h header includes &lt;asm/pgtable.h&gt; to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g.  pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc().  So, there is no point to explicitly include &lt;asm/pgtable.h&gt;
in the files that include &lt;linux/mm.h&gt;.

The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:

	for f in $(git grep -l "include &lt;linux/mm.h&gt;") ; do
		sed -i -e '/include &lt;asm\/pgtable.h&gt;/ d' $f
	done

When 'SAVAGEFB_DEBUG' is not defined, modify the DBG() macro to use the
no_printk() macro instead of using &lt;empty&gt;.
This fixes a build warning when -Wextra is used and provides
printk format checking:

<content type='text'>
Now that the fbops member of struct fb_info is const, we can start
making the ops const as well.

This does not cover all drivers; some actually modify the fbops struct,
for example to adjust for different configurations, and others do more
involved things that I'd rather not touch in practically obsolete
drivers. Mostly this is the low hanging fruit where we can add "const"
and be done with it.

v3:
- un-constify atyfb, mb862xx, nvidia and uvesabf (0day)

v2:
- fix typo (Christophe de Dinechin)
- use "static const" instead of "const static" in mx3fb.c
- also constify smscufx.c

Except for driver bugs (which we'll catch with a WARN_ON) this is only
to report failures of the new driver taking over the console. There's
nothing the outgoing driver can do about that, and no one ever
bothered to actually look at these return values. So remove them all.

v2: fixup unregister_framebuffer in savagefb, fbtft, ivtvfb, and neofb
drivers, reported by kbuild.
