2008-07-14drm: reorganise drm tree to be more future proof.Dave Airlie
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. Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>
2008-07-12drivers/char/pcmcia/ipwireless/hardware.c fix resource leakDarren Jenkins
Coverity CID: 2172 RESOURCE_LEAK When pool_allocate() tries to enlarge a packet, if it can not allocate enough memory, it returns NULL without first freeing the old packet. This patch just frees the packet first.

2008-07-11[PATCH] IPMI: return correct value from ipmi_writeMark Rustad
This patch corrects the handling of write operations to the IPMI watchdog to work as intended by returning the number of characters actually processed. Without this patch, an "echo V >/dev/watchdog" enables the watchdog if IPMI is providing the watchdog function.

2008-07-10rtc: fix reported IRQ rate for when HPET is enabledPaul Gortmaker
The IRQ rate reported back by the RTC is incorrect when HPET is enabled. Newer hardware that has HPET to emulate the legacy RTC device gets this value wrong since after it sets the rate, it returns before setting the variable used to report the IRQ rate back to users of the device -- so the set rate and the reported rate get out of sync.

2008-07-02DRM/i915: only use tiled blits on 965+Jesse Barnes
When scheduled swaps occur, we need to blit between front & back buffers. If the buffers are tiled, we need to set the appropriate XY_SRC_COPY tile bit, but only on 965 chips, since it will cause corruption on pre-965 (e.g. 945).
