Linus Torvalds 9138475862 Merge branch 'linux-3.17' of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/nouveau/linux-2.6
Pull nouveau drm updates from Ben Skeggs:
 "Apologies for not getting this done in time for Dave's drm-next merge
  window.  As he mentioned, a pre-existing bug reared its head a lot
  more obviously after this lot of changes.  It took quite a bit of time
  to track it down.  In any case, Dave suggested I try my luck by
  sending directly to you this time.

  Overview:

   - more code for Tegra GK20A from NVIDIA - probing, reclockig
   - better fix for Kepler GPUs that have the graphics engine powered
     off on startup, method courtesy of info provided by NVIDIA
   - unhardcoding of a bunch of graphics engine setup on
     Fermi/Kepler/Maxwell, will hopefully solve some issues people have
     noticed on higher-end models
   - support for "Zero Bandwidth Clear" on Fermi/Kepler/Maxwell, needs
     userspace support in general, but some lucky apps will benefit
     automagically
   - reviewed/exposed the full object APIs to userspace (finally), gives
     it access to perfctrs, ZBC controls, various events.  More to come
     in the future.
   - various other fixes"

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.


Documentation on the DRI is available from:
