Writing to a file is supposed to return the number of bytes written.
Returning zero unfortunately causes bash to constantly spin trying
to write to the sysfs file, to such an extent that even ^c and ^z
have no effect. The only way out of that is to kill the shell and
log back in. This isn't nice behaviour.
Fix it by returning the number of characters written to sysfs files.

bunch of i915 fixes.

After GPU reset, HW is losing the address of HWS page in the register.
The page itself is valid except that HW is not aware of its location.

This patch reloads this value into the register during ring init.

One minor fix for last -rc of 4.1. The fix moves the update of an attribute in
topology to *after* it is actually initialized.

Apparently we can have requests even if though the active list is empty,
so do the request retirement regardless of whether there's anything
on the active list.
The way it happened here is that during suspend intel_ring_idle()
notices the olr hanging around and then proceeds to get rid of it by
adding a request. However since there was nothing on the active lists
i915_gem_retire_requests() didn't clean those up, and so the idle work
never runs, and we leave the GPU "busy" during suspend resulting in a
WARN later.

According to the HSW b-spec we need to try clock divisors of 63
and 72, each 3 or more times, when attempting DP AUX channel
communication on a server chipset. This actually wasn't happening
due to a short-circuit that only checked the DP_AUX_CH_CTL_DONE bit
in status rather than checking that the operation was done and
that DP_AUX_CH_CTL_TIME_OUT_ERROR was not set.
[v2] Implemented alternate solution suggested by Jani Nikula.

We have that bug for years and some users report side effects when fixing it on older hardware.
So revert it for VM_CONTEXT0_PAGE_TABLE_END_ADDR, but keep it for VM 1-15.

here's a drm regression fix for drivers only partially
converted to atomic.
* tag 'topic/drm-fixes-2015-05-27' of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm-intel:
drm/plane-helper: Adapt cursor hack to transitional helpers
For actual sharing of buffers with other drivers (ie. actual hardware)
we'll need to pimp things out a bit better to deal w/ caching, multiple
memory domains, etc. See thread:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2015-May/083160.html
But for the llvmpipe use-case this isn't a problem. Nor do we really
need prime/dri3 (dri2 is sufficient). So until the other issues are
sorted lets remove DRIVER_PRIME.
v2: also drop the dead code
[airlied:
Okay I'm convinced this API could have a lot of use cases
that are really really bad, yes the upload use case is valid
however that isn't the only use case enabled, and if we allow
all the other use cases, people will start to (ab)use them,
and then they'll be ABI and my life will get worse, so disable
PRIME for now]

drm/atomic-helpers: Recover full cursor plane behaviour
we've added a hack to atomic helpers to never to vblank waits for
cursor updates through the legacy apis since that's what X expects.
Unfortunately we've (again) forgotten to adjust the transitional
helpers. Do this now.
This fixes regressions for drivers only partially converted over to
atomic (like i915).

drm/radeon: retry dcpd fetch
There's a stable backport from Ander [1] that combines this and a few
other commits to fix the flickering on v4.0, reported in [2] among
others. Having this upstream is obviously a requirement for stable.
