New asics support non-privileged IBs. This allows us
to skip IB checking in the driver since the hardware
will check the command buffers for us. When using
non-privileged IBs, if the CP encounters an illegal
register in the command stream, it will halt and generate
an interrupt. The CP needs to be reset to continue. For now
just do a full GPU reset when this happens.

Pull drm merge (part 1) from Dave Airlie:
"So first of all my tree and uapi stuff has a conflict mess, its my
fault as the nouveau stuff didn't hit -next as were trying to rebase
regressions out of it before we merged.
Highlights:
- SH mobile modesetting driver and associated helpers
- some DRM core documentation
- i915 modesetting rework, haswell hdmi, haswell and vlv fixes, write
combined pte writing, ilk rc6 support,
- nouveau: major driver rework into a hw core driver, makes features
like SLI a lot saner to implement,
- psb: add eDP/DP support for Cedarview
- radeon: 2 layer page tables, async VM pte updates, better PLL
selection for > 2 screens, better ACPI interactions
The rest is general grab bag of fixes.
So why part 1? well I have the exynos pull req which came in a bit
late but was waiting for me to do something they shouldn't have and it
looks fairly safe, and David Howells has some more header cleanups
he'd like me to pull, that seem like a good idea, but I'd like to get
this merge out of the way so -next dosen't get blocked."
Tons of conflicts mostly due to silly include line changes, but mostly
mindless. A few other small semantic conflicts too, noted from Dave's
pre-merged branch.

Merge tag 'uapi-prep-20121002' of git://git.infradead.org/users/dhowells/linux-headers
Pull preparatory patches for user API disintegration from David Howells:
"The patches herein prepare for the extraction of the Userspace API
bits from the various header files named in the Kbuild files.
New subdirectories are created under either include/uapi/ or
arch/x/include/uapi/ that correspond to the subdirectory containing
that file under include/ or arch/x/include/.
The new subdirs under the uapi/ directory are populated with Kbuild
files that mostly do nothing at this time. Further patches will
disintegrate the headers in each original directory and fill in the
Kbuild files as they do it.
These patches also:
(1) fix up #inclusions of "foo.h" rather than <foo.h>.
(2) Remove some redundant #includes from the DRM code.
(3) Make the kernel build infrastructure handle Kbuild files both in
the old places and the new UAPI place that both specify headers
to be exported.
(4) Fix some kernel tools that #include kernel headers during their
build.

Merge tag 'v3.4-rc6' into drm-intel-next
Conflicts:
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c
Ok, this is a fun story of git totally messing things up. There
/shouldn't/ be any conflict in here, because the fixes in -rc6 do only
touch functions that have not been changed in -next.
The offending commits in drm-next are 14415745b2..1fa611065 which
simply move a few functions from intel_display.c to intel_pm.c. The
problem seems to be that git diff gets completely confused:
$ git diff 14415745b2..1fa611065
is a nice mess in intel_display.c, and the diff leaks into totally
unrelated functions, whereas
$git diff --minimal 14415745b2..1fa611065
is exactly what we want.
Unfortunately there seems to be no way to teach similar smarts to the
merge diff and conflict generation code, because with the minimal diff
there really shouldn't be any conflicts. For added hilarity, every
time something in that area changes the + and - lines in the diff move
around like crazy, again resulting in new conflicts. So I fear this
mess will stay with us for a little longer (and might result in
another backmerge down the road).

With cmwq, there's no reason for radeon to use a dedicated workqueue.
Drop dev_priv->wq and use system_wq instead.
Because radeon_driver_irq_uninstall_kms() may be called from
unsleepable context, the work items can't be flushed from there.
Instead, init and flush from radeon_irq_kms_init/fini().
While at it, simplify canceling/flushing of rdev->pm.dynpm_idle_work.
Always initialize and sync cancel instead of being unnecessarily smart

This enables the use of interrupts on r6xx/r7xx hardware.
Interrupts are implemented via a ring buffer. The GPU adds
interrupts vectors to the ring and the host reads them off
in the interrupt handler. The interrupt controller requires
firmware like the CP. This firmware must be installed and
accessble to the firmware loader for interrupts to function.
MSIs don't seem to work on my RS780. They work fine on all
my discrete cards. I'm not sure about other RS780s or
RS880s. I've disabled MSIs on RS780 and RS880, but it would
probably be worth checking on some other systems.

Add kernel modesetting support to radeon driver, use the ttm memory
manager to manage memory and DRM/GEM to provide userspace API.
In order to avoid backward compatibility issue and to allow clean
design and code the radeon kernel modesetting use different code path
than old radeon/drm driver.
When kernel modesetting is enabled the IOCTL of radeon/drm
driver are considered as invalid and an error message is printed
in the log and they return failure.
KMS enabled userspace will use new API to talk with the radeon/drm
driver. The new API provide functions to create/destroy/share/mmap
buffer object which are then managed by the kernel memory manager
(here TTM). In order to submit command to the GPU the userspace
provide a buffer holding the command stream, along this buffer
userspace have to provide a list of buffer object used by the
command stream. The kernel radeon driver will then place buffer
in GPU accessible memory and will update command stream to reflect
the position of the different buffers.
The kernel will also perform security check on command stream
provided by the user, we want to catch and forbid any illegal use
of the GPU such as DMA into random system memory or into memory
not owned by the process supplying the command stream. This part
of the code is still incomplete and this why we propose that patch
as a staging driver addition, future security might forbid current
experimental userspace to run.
This code support the following hardware : R1XX,R2XX,R3XX,R4XX,R5XX
(radeon up to X1950). Works is underway to provide support for R6XX,
R7XX and newer hardware (radeon from HD2XXX to HD4XXX).
