e0423edff1 ACPICA: Unix: Cleanup to use ACPI_TO_INTEGER() to calc page offset.
ACPICA commit 9e2d8180f4d5e61949b17513bae8aff6412f62dd

The offset calculation needn't convert a pointer to a special integer type.
So this patch uses ACPI_TO_INTEGER() instead.

This patch only affects acpidump tool.

f254e3c57b ACPICA: Tables: Change acpi_find_root_pointer() to use acpi_physical_address.
ACPICA commit 7d9fd64397d7c38899d3dc497525f6e6b044e0e3

OSPMs like Linux expect an acpi_physical_address returning value from
acpi_find_root_pointer(). This triggers warnings if sizeof (acpi_size) doesn't
equal to sizeof (acpi_physical_address):
  drivers/acpi/osl.c:275:3: warning: passing argument 1 of 'acpi_find_root_pointer' from incompatible pointer type [enabled by default]
  In file included from include/acpi/acpi.h:64:0,

  include/acpi/acpixf.h:433:1: note: expected 'acpi_size *' but argument is of type 'acpi_physical_address *'
This patch corrects acpi_find_root_pointer().

4c27283415 drm/i915: add bxt gmbus support
For BXT gmbus is pulled from PCH to CPU. From implementation point of
view only pin pair configuration will change. The existing
implementation supports all platforms previous to GEN8 and also SKL. But
for BXT pin pair configuration is completely different than SKL or other
previous GEN's. This patch introduces the new pin pair configuration
structure specific to BXT and also ensures every real gmbus port has a
gpio pin.

v3 by Jani: with the platform independent prep work in place, the bxt
enabling reduces to a fairly trivial patch. Credits are due Sunil for
giving me the ideas (with his patches) what the platform independent
parts should look like.

v4: Fix intel_hdmi_init_connector() for bxt. Abstract gmbus_pin access
more. s/GPU/PCH/ in commit message.

v5: Rebase.

3968be946a drm: Make integer overflow checking cover universal cursor updates (v2)
Our legacy SetPlane updates perform integer overflow checking on a
plane's destination rectangle in drm_mode_setplane(), and atomic updates
handled as part of a drm_atomic_state transaction do the same checking
in drm_atomic_plane_check().  However legacy cursor updates that get
routed through universal plane interfaces may bypass this overflow
checking if the driver's .update_plane is serviced by the transitional
plane helpers rather than the full atomic plane helpers.

Move the check for destination rectangle integer overflow from the
drm_mode_setplane() to __setplane_internal() so that it also covers
cursor operations.

This fixes an issue first noticed with i915 commit:

        commit ff42e093e9
        Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>
        Date:   Mon Mar 2 16:35:20 2015 +0100

            Revert "drm/i915: Switch planes from transitional helpers to full
            atomic helpers"

The above revert switched us from full atomic helpers back to the
transitional helpers, and in doing so we lost the overflow checking here
for universal cursor updates.  Even though such extreme cursor positions
are unlikely to actually happen in the wild, we still don't want there
to be a change of behavior when drivers switch from transitional helpers
to full helpers.

v2: Move check from setplane ioctl to setplane_internal rather than
    adding an additional copy of the checks to the transitional plane
    helpers.  (Daniel)

4195f40685 drm/nouveau/bios: fix fetching from acpi on certain systems
nvbios_extend() returns 1 to indicate "extended the array" and 0 to
indicate the array is already big enough.  This is used by the core
shadowing code to prevent re-fetching chunks of the image that have
already been shadowed.

The ACPI fetching code may possibly need to extend this further due
to requiring fetches to happen in 4KiB chunks.

Under certain circumstances (that happen if the total image size is
a multiple of 4KiB), the memory allocated to store the shadow will
already be big enough, causing the ACPI code's nvbios_extend() call
to return 0, which is misinterpreted as a failure.

The fix is simple, accept >= 0 as a successful condition here.  The
core will have already made sure that we're not re-fetching data we
already have.

Bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89047

996f545fbb drm/nouveau/gem: allow user-space to specify an object should be coherent
User-space use mappable BOs notably for fences, and expects that a
value update by the GPU will be immediatly visible through the
user-space mapping.

ARM has a property that may prevent this from happening though: memory
can be mapped multiple times only if the different mappings share the
same caching properties. However all the lowmem memory is already
identity-mapped into the kernel with cache enabled, so when user-space
requests an uncached mapping, we actually get an "undefined caching
policy" one and this has strange side-effects described on Freedesktop
bug 86690.

To prevent this from happening, allow user-space to explicitly specify
which objects should be coherent, and create such objects with the
TTM_PL_FLAG_UNCACHED flag. This will make TTM allocate memory using the
DMA API, which will fix the identify mapping and allow us to safely map
the objects to user-space uncached.
