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). Signed-Off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>

************************************************************
The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).
The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:
1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.
2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
restricted regions of memory.
3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
switch.
4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
Documentation on the DRI is available from:
