Merge tag 'drm-for-v4.12' of git://people.freedesktop.org/~airlied/linux

Pull drm u pdates from Dave Airlie:
 "This is the main drm pull request for v4.12. Apart from two fixes
  pulls, everything should have been in drm-next for at least 2 weeks.

  The biggest thing in here is AMD released the public headers for their
  upcoming VEGA GPUs. These as always are quite a sizeable chunk of
  header files. They've also added initial non-display support for those
  GPUs, though they aren't available in production yet.

  Otherwise it's pretty much normal.

   - Fix GTX 970 with odd MMU configuration
   - GP10B support
   - GP107 acceleration support

  vmwgfx:
   - Atomic modesetting support for vmwgfx

  omapdrm:
   - Support for render nodes

   - Fix some probe ordering issues
   - Fix too dark RGB565 rendering

  sunxi:
   - prelim rework for multiple pipes.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
