4cb81ac202 drm: Trim the GEM mmap offset hashtab
Using an order 19 drm_ht for the mmap offsets is a little obscene. That
means that will a fully populated GTT with every single object mmaped at
least once in its lifetime, there will be exactly one object in each
bucket.

Typically systems only have at most a few thousand objects, though you
may see a KDE desktop hit 50000. And most of those should never be
mapped... On my systems, just using an order 10 ht would still have an
average occupancy less than 1, so apply a small safety factor and
use an order 12 ht, like the other mmap offset ht.

82ef594efb drm/ttm: call driver move_notify() when doing system->tt bo moves
Nouveau doesn't have enough information at ttm_backend_func.bind() time
to implement things like tiled GART, or to keep a buffer at a constant
address in the GPU virtual address space no matter where in physical
memory it's placed.

To resolve this, nouveau will handle binding of all buffers to the GPU
itself from the move_notify() hook.  This commit ensures it's called
for all buffer moves.

Talked to Dave about the impact on radeon, which uses move_notify, it
doesn't look like anything should break there.

b0b7af1884 drm: mm: add api for embedding struct drm_mm_node
The old api has a two-step process: First search for a suitable
free hole, then allocate from that specific hole. No user used
this to do anything clever. So drop it for the embeddable variant
of the drm_mm api (the old one retains this ability, for the time
being).

With struct drm_mm_node embedded, we cannot track allocations
anymore by checking for a NULL pointer. So keep track of this
and add a small helper drm_mm_node_allocated.

Also add a function to move allocations between different struct
drm_mm_node.

v2: Implement suggestions by Chris Wilson.

ea7b1dd448 drm: mm: track free areas implicitly
The idea is to track free holes implicitly by marking the allocation
immediatly preceeding a hole.

To avoid an ugly corner case add a dummy head_node to struct drm_mm
to track the hole that spans to complete allocation area when the
memory manager is empty.

To guarantee that there's always a preceeding/following node (that might
be marked as hole_follows == 1), move the mm->node_list list_head to the
head_node.

The main allocator and fair-lru scan code actually becomes simpler.
Only the debug code slightly suffers because free areas are no longer
explicit.

Also add drm_mm_for_each_node (which will be much more useful when
struct drm_mm_node is embeddable).

1dc32671d8 drm/nv40: fix tiling-related setup for a number of chipsets
Due to the default case handling the older chipsets, a bunch of the newer
ones ended up having the wrong tiling regs used.  This commit switches the
default case to handle the newest chipsets.

This also makes nv4e touch the "extra" tiling regs.  "nv" doesn't touch
them for C51 but traces of the NVIDIA binary driver show it being done
there.

I couldn't find NV41/NV45 traces to confirm the behaviour there, but an
educated guess was taken at each of them.

ff72145bad drm: dumb scanout create/mmap for intel/radeon (v3)
This is just an idea that might or might not be a good idea,
it basically adds two ioctls to create a dumb and map a dumb buffer
suitable for scanout. The handle can be passed to the KMS ioctls to create
a framebuffer.

It looks to me like it would be useful in the following cases:
a) in development drivers - we can always provide a shadowfb fallback.
b) libkms users - we can clean up libkms a lot and avoid linking
to libdrm_*.
c) plymouth via libkms is a lot easier.

Userspace bits would be just calls + mmaps. We could probably
mark these handles somehow as not being suitable for acceleartion
so as top stop people who are dumber than dumb.

was not officially supported by Intel at the time when Pentium-III

With this change, it is still possible to build a distribution kernel

As a precaution, check for the theoretical SMP case at run time and
refuse to load the driver.

We also need to disable CONFIG_PREEMPT builds for this driver.

f60ac8e7ab r8169: prevent RxFIFO induced loops in the irq handler.
While the RxFIFO interruption is masked for most 8168, nothing prevents
it to appear in the irq status word. This is no excuse to crash.

1519e57fe8 r8169: RxFIFO overflow oddities with 8168 chipsets.
Some experiment-based action to prevent my 8168 chipsets locking-up hard
in the irq handler under load (pktgen ~1Mpps). Apparently a reset is not
always mandatory (is it at all ?).

- RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_12
- RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_25
  Missed ~55% packets. Note:
  - this is an old SiS 965L motherboard
  - the 8168 chipset emits (lots of) control frames towards the sender

- RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_26
  The chipset does not go into a frenzy of mac control pause when it
  crashes yet but it can still be crashed. It needs more work.
