<title>drm/ast: Remove existing framebuffers before loading driver</title>

commit 5478ad10e7850ce3d8b7056db05ddfa3c9ddad9a upstream.

If vesafb attaches to the AST device, it configures the framebuffer memory
for uncached access by default. When ast.ko later tries to attach itself to
the device, it wants to use write-combining on the framebuffer memory, but
vesefb's existing configuration for uncached access takes precedence. This
results in reduced performance.

Removing the framebuffer's configuration before loding the AST driver fixes
the problem. Other DRM drivers already contain equivalent code.

commit 7cf321d118a825c1541b43ca45294126fd474efa upstream.

This fixes a regression in all these drivers since the cache
mode tracking was fixed for mixed mappings. It uses the new
arch API to add the VRAM range to the PAT mapping tracking
tables.

The current POST code for the AST2300/2400 family doesn't work properly
if the chip hasn't been initialized previously by either the BMC own FW
or the VBIOS. This fixes it.

commit 298360af3dab45659810fdc51aba0c9f4097e4f6 upstream.

ast_get_dram_info() configures a window in order to access BMC memory.
A BMC register can be configured to disallow this, and if so, causes
an infinite loop in the ast driver which renders the system unusable.

Fix this by erroring out if an error is detected.  On powerpc systems with
EEH, this leads to the device being fenced and the system continuing to
operate.

commit 2d02b8bdba322b527c5f5168ce1ca10c2d982a78 upstream.

During DRAM initialization on certain ASpeed devices, an incorrect
bit (bit 10) was checked in the "SDRAM Bus Width Status" register
to determine DRAM width.

Query bit 6 instead in accordance with the Aspeed AST2050 datasheet v1.05.

commit 28fb4cb7fa6f63dc2fbdb5f2564dcbead8e3eee0 upstream.

Due to a missing initialization there was no way to map fbdev memory.
Thus for example using the Xserver with the fbdev driver failed.
This fix adds initialization for fix.smem_start and fix.smem_len
in the fb_info structure, which fixes this problem.
