A few leftover fixes for 3.8:
- VIC support for hdmi infoframes with the associated drm helper, fixes
some black TVs (Paulo Zanoni)
- Modeset state check (and fixup if the BIOS messed with the hw) for
lid-open. modeset-rework fallout. Somehow the original reporter went
awol, so this stalled for way too long until we've found a new
victim^Wreporter with broken BIOS.
- seqno wrap fixes from Mika and Chris.
- Some minor fixes all over from various people.
- Another race fix in the pageflip vs. unpin code from Chris.
- hsw vga resume support and a few more fdi link fixes (only used for vga
on hsw) from Paulo.
- Regression fix for DMAR from Zhenyu Wang - I've scavenged memory from my
DMAR for a while and it broke right away :(
- Regression fix from Takashi Iwai for ivb lvds - some w/a needs to be
(partially) moved back into place. Note that these are regressions in
-next.
- One more fix for ivb 3 pipe support - it now actually seems to work.

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:
