[v3.8 Regression] Merge tag 'v3.7-rc2' into drm-intel-next-queued

[v3.8 Regression] Merge tag 'v3.7-rc2' into drm-intel-next-queued

[Joseph Salisbury]

Hi Daniel,

A bug was opened against the Ubuntu kernel[0].  After a kernel bisect, 
it was found the following was the first bad commit:


commit c2fb7916927e989ea424e61ce5fe617e54878827
Merge: 29de6ce 6f0c058
Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>
Date:   Mon Oct 22 14:34:51 2012 +0200

     Merge tag 'v3.7-rc2' into drm-intel-next-queued



The regression was introduced as of v3.8-rc1.  However, further testing 
also shows this bug is now fixed in v3.9-rc4.

I see that you are the author of this patch, so I wanted see if I can 
get your feedback.  Do you happen to have an idea what may have fixed 
this in v3.9-rc4, so we can send a request to stable, if not already 
done?  Otherwise, I can perform a reverse bisect to see which commit 
fixed this.


Thanks,

Joe

So apparently it's an oops somewhere in the nouveau setup code, which
bisected to a backmerge which has _only_ conflicts in drm/i915 driver code.

I have no idea what blew up here, sorry.

Thanks for the info, Daniel.  I'll go the reverse bisect route.
