[ Upstream commit 194d250cdc4a40ccbd179afd522a9e9846957402 ]

drm_cvt_mode may return NULL and we should check it.

<title>drm/virtio: Ensure that objs is not NULL in virtio_gpu_array_put_free()</title>

commit 6b79f96f4a23846516e5e6e4dd37fc06f43a60dd upstream.

If virtio_gpu_object_shmem_init() fails (e.g. due to fault injection, as it
happened in the bug report by syzbot), virtio_gpu_array_put_free() could be
called with objs equal to NULL.

Ensure that objs is not NULL in virtio_gpu_array_put_free(), or otherwise
return from the function.

This will enable cleanups down the road.
The idea is to disable cbs, then add "flush_queued_cbs" callback
as a parameter, this way drivers can flush any work
queued after callbacks have been disabled.

Just a bunch of adjacent changes conflicts, even the big pile of them

GEM helper libraries use struct drm_driver.gem_create_object to let
drivers override GEM object allocation. On failure, the call returns
NULL.

Change the semantics to make the calls return a pointer-encoded error.
This aligns the callback with its callers. Fixes the ingenic driver,
which already returns an error pointer.

Also update the callers to handle the involved types more strictly.

With the use of dummy events, we can drop virtgpu specific
behavior.

<title>drm/virtgpu api: define a dummy fence signaled event</title>

The current virtgpu implementation of poll(..) drops events
when VIRTGPU_CONTEXT_PARAM_POLL_RINGS_MASK is enabled (otherwise
it's like a normal DRM driver).

This is because paravirtualized userspaces receives responses in a
buffer of type BLOB_MEM_GUEST, not by read(..).

To be in line with other DRM drivers and avoid specialized behavior,
it is possible to define a dummy event for virtgpu.  Paravirtualized
userspace will now have to call read(..) on the DRM fd to receive the
dummy event.

<title>drm: Move nomodeset kernel parameter to the DRM subsystem</title>

The "nomodeset" kernel cmdline parameter is handled by the vgacon driver
but the exported vgacon_text_force() symbol is only used by DRM drivers.

It makes much more sense for the parameter logic to be in the subsystem
of the drivers that are making use of it.

Let's move the vgacon_text_force() function and related logic to the DRM
subsystem. While doing that, rename it to drm_firmware_drivers_only() and
make it return true if "nomodeset" was used and false otherwise. This is
a better description of the condition that the drivers are testing for.
