As DRM_DEBUG macro already prints out the __FUNCTION__ string (see
drivers/char/drm/drmP.h), it is not worth doing this again. At some
other places the ending "\n" was added.
airlied:- I cleaned up a few that this patch missed also
Document parameters and usage for drm_bo_handle_validate. Change parameter
order to match drm_bo_do_validate (fence_class has been moved to after
flags, hint and mask values). Existing users of this function have been
changed, but out-of-tree users must be modified separately.
One of the costs of superioctl has been the need to perform relocations
inside the kernel. The cost of mapping the buffers to the CPU and writing
data is fairly high, especially if those buffers have been mapped and read
by the GPU.
If we assume that buffers don't move around very often, we can have the
client compute the relocations itself using the previous GPU address. When
that object doesn't move, the kernel can skip computing and writing the
updated data.
Here's a patch which adds a new field to struct drm_bo_info_req called
'presumed_offset', and a new DRM_BO_HINT_PRESUMED_OFFSET that is set when
this field has been filled in by the client.
There are two separate optimizations performed when the presumed_offset is
correct:
1. i915_exec_reloc checks to see if all previous buffer offsets were guessed
correctly. If so, there's no need for it to look at *any* of the
relocations for a buffer. When this happens, it skips the whole
relocation process, simply returning success.
2. i915_apply_reloc checks to see if the target buffer offset was guessed
correctly. If so, it skips mapping the relocatee, computing the
relocation and writing the value. If no relocations are needed, the
relocatee should never be mapped to the CPU, and so the kernel shouldn't
need to wait for any fences to pass.

Fixup suspend/resume conflicts (basically use what's in DRM master for now).
Also fix up a few other conflicts that snuck in (i915_dma changes etc.).
Add suspend/resume support to the i915 driver. Moves some of the
initialization into the driver load routine, and fixes up places where we
assumed no dev_private existed in some of the cleanup paths. This allows
us to suspend/resume properly even if X isn't running.
This adds the initial i915 superioctl interface. The interface should be
sufficent even if the implementation may needs fixes/optimisations internally
in the drm wrt caching etc.
