    drm/ttm: fix fence locking in ttm_buffer_object_transfer

which leaves behind a might_sleep in atomic context, since the
fence_lock spinlock is held over a kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL) call. The fix
is to revert the above commit and only take the lock where we need it,
around the call to -&gt;sync_obj_ref.

v2: Fixup things noticed by Maarten Lankhorst:
- Brown paper bag locking bug.
- No need for kzalloc if we clear the entire thing on the next line.
- check for bo-&gt;sync_obj (totally unlikely race, but still someone
  else could have snuck in) and clear fbo-&gt;sync_obj if it's cleared
  already.

Pull radeon fixes from Dave Airlie:
 "I got these late last week, the main chunks of these fix a rendering
  regression since 3.7, and the settle ones all fix the issue where we
  don't wait long enough for the memory controller to settle after
  turning it off which causes bad memory reads, they all fix real users
  bugs, and most of them are destined for stable.

  Can't remember if you had net connection on that island :-)"

I don't know if the "two tin-cans and a string" thing here on "that
island" can really be considered internet, but I guess I can pull
things.  Barely.

* 'drm-fixes' of git://people.freedesktop.org/~airlied/linux:
  drm/radeon: switch back to the CP ring for VM PT updates
  drm/radeon: prevent crash in the ring space allocation
  drm/radeon: Calling object_unrefer() when creating fb failure
  drm/radeon/r5xx-r7xx: wait for the MC to settle after MC blackout
  drm/radeon/evergreen+: wait for the MC to settle after MC blackout
  drm/radeon: protect against div by 0 in backend setup
  drm/radeon: fix backend map setup on 1 RB sumo boards

For large VM page table updates, we can sometimes generate
more packets than there is space on the ring.  This happens
more readily with the DMA ring since it is 64K (vs 1M for the
CP).  For now, switch back to the CP.  For the next kernel,
I have a patch to utilize IBs for VM PT updates which
alleviates this problem.

If the requested number of DWs on the ring is larger than
the size of the ring itself, return an error.

In testing with large VM updates, we've seen crashes when we
try and allocate more space on the ring than the total size
of the ring without checking.

This prevents the crash but for large VM updates or bo moves
of very large buffers, we will need to break the transaction
down into multiple batches.  I have patches to use IBs for
the next kernel.

Originally 'efi_enabled' indicated whether a kernel was booted from
EFI firmware. Over time its semantics have changed, and it now
indicates whether or not we are booted on an EFI machine with
bit-native firmware, e.g. 64-bit kernel with 64-bit firmware.

The immediate motivation for this patch is the bug report at,

    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557

which details how running a platform driver on an EFI machine that is
designed to run under BIOS can cause the machine to become
bricked. Also, the following report,

    https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47121

details how running said driver can also cause Machine Check
Exceptions. Drivers need a new means of detecting whether they're
running on an EFI machine, as sadly the expression,

    if (!efi_enabled)

hasn't been a sufficient condition for quite some time.

Users actually want to query 'efi_enabled' for different reasons -
what they really want access to is the list of available EFI
facilities.

For instance, the x86 reboot code needs to know whether it can invoke
the ResetSystem() function provided by the EFI runtime services, while
the ACPI OSL code wants to know whether the EFI config tables were
mapped successfully. There are also checks in some of the platform
driver code to simply see if they're running on an EFI machine (which
would make it a bad idea to do BIOS-y things).

This patch is a prereq for the samsung-laptop fix patch.
