Linux 3.7-rc2 Backmerge to solve two ugly conflicts: - uapi. We've already added new ioctl definitions for -next. Do I need to say more? - wc support gtt ptes. We've had to revert this for snb+ for 3.7 and also fix a few other things in the code. Now we know how to make it work on snb+, but to avoid losing the other fixes do the backmerge first before re-enabling wc gtt ptes on snb+. And a few other minor things, among them git getting confused in intel_dp.c and seemingly causing a conflict out of nothing ...

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:
