Thomas Hellstrom fda714c29c drm: Avoid client deadlocks when the master disappears.
This is done by
1) Wake up lock waiters when we close the master file descriptor.
   Not when the master structure is removed, since the latter
   requires the waiters themselves to release the refcount on the
   master structure -> Deadlock.
2) Send a SIGTERM to all clients waiting for the lock.
   Normally these clients will get a SIGPIPE when the X server dies,
   but clients may also spin trying to grab the DRM lock, without
   getting any sort of notification.

Thomas Hellstrom 4d77c88e91 drm: Don't return ERESTARTSYS to user-space.
That return code is for in-kernel use only.
Use EINTR instead.

Dave Airlie 7c1c2871a6 drm: move to kref per-master structures.
This is step one towards having multiple masters sharing a drm
device in order to get fast-user-switching to work.

It splits out the information associated with the drm master
into a separate kref counted structure, and allocates this when
a master opens the device node. It also allows the current master
to abdicate (say while VT switched), and a new master to take over
the hardware.

It moves the Intel and radeon drivers to using the sarea from
within the new master structures.

Eric Anholt 5d8e6bb7a2 drm: Remove infrastructure for supporting i915's vblank swapping.
It's not used in any other drivers, and doesn't look like it will be from
drm.git master.

Keith Packard 9e44af790f drm/i915: hold dev->struct_mutex and DRM lock during vblank ring operations
To synchronize clip lists with the X server, the DRM lock must be held while
looking at drawable clip lists. To synchronize with other ring access, the
ring mutex must be held while inserting commands into the ring.  Failure to
do the first resulted in easy visual corruption when moving windows, and the
second could have corrupted the ring with DRI2.

Grabbing the DRM lock involves using the DRM tasklet mechanism, grabbing the
ring mutex means potentially sleeping. Deal with both of these by always
running the tasklet from a work handler.

Also, protect from clip list changes since the vblank request was queued by
making sure the window has at least one rectangle while looking inside,
preventing oopses .

Dave Airlie 3e5fc80a40 drm: don't set the signal blocker on the master process.
There is a problem with debugging the X server and gdb crashes in
the xkb startup code.

This avoids the problem by allowing the master process to get signals.
It should be safe as the signal blocker is mainly so that you can
Ctrl-Z a 3D application without locking up the whole box. Ctrl-Z the
X server isn't something many people do.

Thomas Hellstrom e5b4f19417 drm: don't call the vblank tasklet with irqs disabled.
If a specific tasklet shares data with irq context,
it needs to take a private irq-blocking spinlock within
the tasklet itself.

Dave Airlie c0e09200dc drm: reorganise drm tree to be more future proof.
With the coming of kernel based modesetting and the memory manager stuff,
the everything in one directory approach was getting very ugly and
starting to be unmanageable.

This restructures the drm along the lines of other kernel components.

It creates a drivers/gpu/drm directory and moves the hw drivers into
subdirectores. It moves the includes into an include/drm, and
sets up the unifdef for the userspace headers we should be exporting.
