2011-03-16fbdev: sh_mobile_lcdc: Add YUV framebuffer supportDamian Hobson-Garcia
Supports YCbCr420sp, YCbCr422sp, and YCbCr44sp, formats (bpp = 12, 16, and 24) respectively. When double-buffering both Y planes appear before the C planes (Y-Y-C-C), as opposed to Y-C-Y-C. Set .nonstd in struct sh_mobile_lcdc_chan_cfg to enable YUV mode, and use .bpp to distiguish between the 3 modes. The value of .nonstd is copied to bits 16-31 of LDDFR in the LCDC and should be set accordingly. .nonstd must be set to 0 for RGB mode. Due to the encoding of YUV data, the framebuffer will clear to green instead of black. In YUV 420 mode, panning is only possible in 2 line increments. Additionally in YUV 420 mode the vertical resolution of the framebuffer must be an even number.

2011-03-12viafb: split pll configs upFlorian Tobias Schandinat
This patch splits the pll configs up on pll versions. This allows easy adding of other known good pll values. Additionally it made it possible to remove invalid configurations resulting in better behaviour for such cases. The resulting clocks are no longer stored resulting in some computing overhead on each mode change. Signed-off-by: Florian Tobias Schandinat <FlorianSchandinat@gmx.de>
2011-03-12viafb: remove duplicated clock storageFlorian Tobias Schandinat
The clocks can be easily recalculated by the timing and refresh value. This brings us one step closer to removing VIAs modetable and use generic ones and being easier extensible. Signed-off-by: Florian Tobias Schandinat <FlorianSchandinat@gmx.de>
2011-03-12viafb: always return the best possible clockFlorian Tobias Schandinat
Before this patch only clocks that perfectly match were used and if none existed this was not handled properly. This patch changes this to always use the closest clock supported. This should behave like before for clocks that have a perfect match but be much saner for clocks which are slightly off. Signed-off-by: Florian Tobias Schandinat <FlorianSchandinat@gmx.de>
2011-03-12viafb: remove duplicated clock informationFlorian Tobias Schandinat
This patch removes the direct lookup table for resolution+refresh and pixclock by calculating this information from the mode table. Removes a lot of dupllication and error potential by just doing a little more calculations on each mode change. Signed-off-by: Florian Tobias Schandinat <FlorianSchandinat@gmx.de>

Some systems don't provide DMI_BOARD_NAME in their DMI tables. Avoid crash in such situations in fitpc2_wdt_init. The fix is to check if the dmi_get_system_info return value is NULL.

2011-03-08mmc: fix CONFIG_MMC_UNSAFE_RESUME regressionOhad Ben-Cohen
30201e7f3 ("mmc: skip detection of nonremovable cards on rescan") allowed skipping detection of nonremovable cards on mmc_rescan(). The intention was to only skip detection of hardwired cards that cannot be removed, so make sure this is indeed the case by directly checking for (lack of) MMC_CAP_NONREMOVABLE, instead of using mmc_card_is_removable(), which is overloaded with CONFIG_MMC_UNSAFE_RESUME semantics. The user-visible symptom of the bug this patch fixes is that no "mmc: card XXXX removed" message appears in dmesg when a card is removed and CONFIG_MMC_UNSAFE_RESUME=y.

2011-03-07drm/i915: Disable GPU semaphores by defaultChris Wilson
Andi Kleen narrowed his GPU hangs on his Sugar Bay (SNB desktop) rev 09 down to the use of GPU semaphores, and we already know that they appear broken up to Huron River (mobile) rev 08. (I'm optimistic that disabling GPU semaphores is simply hiding another bug by the latency and side-effects of the additional device interaction it introduces...) However, use of semaphores is a massive performance improvement... Only as long as the system remains stable. Enable at your peril.

2011-03-06virtio: console: Don't access vqs if device was unpluggedAmit Shah
If a virtio-console device gets unplugged while a port is open, a subsequent close() call on the port accesses vqs to free up buffers. This can lead to a crash. The buffers are already freed up as a result of the call to unplug_ports() from virtcons_remove(). The fix is to simply not access vq information if port->portdev is NULL.

2011-03-06drm/i915: Do not overflow the MMADDR write FIFOChris Wilson
Whilst the GT is powered down (rc6), writes to MMADDR are placed in a FIFO by the System Agent. This is a limited resource, only 64 entries, of which 20 are reserved for Display and PCH writes, and so we must take care not to queue up too many writes. To avoid this, there is counter which we can poll to ensure there are sufficient free entries in the fifo. "Issuing a write to a full FIFO is not supported; at worst it could result in corruption or a system hang."

2011-03-04pps: make pps_gen_parport depend on BROKENThomas Gleixner
This driver causes hard lockups, when the active clock soure is jiffies. The reason is that it loops with interrupts disabled waiting for a timestamp to be reached by polling getnstimeofday(). Though with a jiffies clocksource, when that code runs on the same CPU which is responsible for updating jiffies, then we loop in circles for ever simply because the timer interrupt cannot update jiffies. So both UP and SMP can be affected. There is no easy fix for that problem so make it depend on BROKEN for now.
