mainlining shenanigans

The kmap and kunmap operations of GEM VRAM buffers can now be called in interleaving pairs. The first call to drm_gem_vram_kmap() maps the buffer's memory to kernel address space and the final call to drm_gem_vram_kunmap() unmaps the memory. Intermediate calls to these functions increment or decrement a reference counter. This change allows for keeping buffer memory mapped for longer and minimizes the amount of changes to TLB, page tables, etc. v4: * lock in kmap()/kunmap() with ttm_bo_reserve() Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com> Acked-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Reported-and-tested-by: Davidlohr Bueso <dbueso@suse.de> Cc: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@stgolabs.net> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20190906122056.32018-2-tzimmermann@suse.de |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
