This is a purely cosmetic change to make changes in this area easier.
And hey, it's not only clearer and typechecked, but actually shorter,

Many new laptops now come with 2 gpus, one to be used for low power
modes and one for gaming/on-ac applications. These GPUs are typically
wired to the laptop panel and VGA ports via a multiplexer unit which
is controlled via ACPI methods.
4 combinations of systems typically exist - with 2 ACPI methods.
Intel/ATI - Lenovo W500/T500 - use ATPX ACPI method
ATI/ATI - some ASUS - use ATPX ACPI Method
Intel/Nvidia - - use _DSM ACPI method
Nvidia/Nvidia - - use _DSM ACPI method.
TODO:
This patch adds support for the ATPX method and initial bits
for the _DSM methods that need to written by someone with
access to the hardware.
Add a proper non-debugfs interface - need to get some proper
testing first.
v2: add power up/down support for both devices
on W500 puts i915/radeon into D3 and cuts power to radeon.
v3: redo probing methods, no DMI list, drm devices call to
register with switcheroo, it tries to find an ATPX method on
any device and once there is two devices + ATPX it inits the
switcher.
v4: ATPX msg handling using buffers - should work on more machines
v5: rearchitect after more mjg59 discussion - move ATPX handling to
radeon driver.
v6: add file headers + initial nouveau bits (to be filled out).
v7: merge delayed switcher code.
v8: avoid suspend/resume of gpu that is off
v9: rearchitect - mjg59 is always right. - move all ATPX code to
radeon, should allow simpler DSM also proper ATRM handling
v10: add ATRM support for radeon BIOS, add mutex to lock vgasr_priv
v11: fix bug in resuming Intel for 2nd time.
v12: start fixing up nvidia code blindly.
v13: blindly guess at finishing nvidia code
v14: remove radeon audio hacks - fix up intel resume more like upstream
v15: clean up printks + remove unnecessary igd/dis pointers

Make sure that the appropriate AGP module is loaded and probed before
trying to set up the DRM. The DRM already depends on the AGP core,
but in this case we know the specific AGP driver we need too, and can
help users avoid the trap of loading the AGP driver after the DRM
driver.

Commit 84b79f8d2882b0a84330c04839ed4d3cefd2ff77 (drm/i915: Fix crash
while aborting hibernation) attempted to fix a regression introduced
by commit cbda12d77ea590082edb6d30bd342a67ebc459e0 (drm/i915:
implement new pm ops for i915), but it went too far trying to split
the freeze/suspend and resume/thaw parts of the code. As a result,
it introduced another regression, which only is visible on some systems.
Fix the problem by merging i915_drm_suspend() with
i915_drm_freeze() and moving some code from i915_resume()
into i915_drm_thaw(), so that intel_opregion_free() and
intel_opregion_init() are also executed in the freeze and thaw code
paths, respectively.

Ironlake (and 965GM, which this patch doesn't support) supports a
hardware performance and power management feature that allows it to
adjust to changes in GPU load over time with software help. The goal
if this is to maximize performance/power for a given workload.
This patch enables that feature, which is also a requirement for
supporting Intelligent Power Sharing, a feature which allows for
dynamic budgeting of power between the CPU and GPU in Arrandale
platforms.

Commit cbda12d77ea590082edb6d30bd342a67ebc459e0 (drm/i915: implement
new pm ops for i915) introduced the problem that if s2disk hibernation
is aborted, the system will crash, because i915_pm_freeze() does
nothing, while it should at least reverse some operations carried out
by i915_suspend().
Fix this issue by splitting the i915 suspend into a freeze part a
suspend part, where the latter is not executed before creating a
hibernation image, and the i915 resume into a "low-level" resume part
and a thaw part, where the former is not executed after the image has
been created.

Many platform support this feature, and it can provide significant
power savings when the reduced refresh rate is low. However, on some
platforms a secondary (reduced) timing is provided but not actually
supported by the hardware. This results in undesirable flicker at
runtime.
So disable the feature by default, but allow users to opt-in to the
reduced clock behavior with a new module parameter, lvds_downclock,
that can be set to 1 to enable the feature.

drm_ioctl is called with the Big Kernel Lock held,
which shows up very high in statistics on vfs_ioctl.
Moving the lock into the drm_ioctl function itself
makes sure we blame the right subsystem and it gets
us one step closer to eliminating the locked version
of fops->ioctl.
Since drm_ioctl does not require the lock itself,
we only need to hold it while calling the specific
handler. The 32 bit conversion handlers do not
interact with any other code, so they don't need
the BKL here either and can just call drm_ioctl.
As a bonus, this cleans up all the other users
of drm_ioctl which now no longer have to find
the inode or call lock_kernel.
[airlied: squashed the non-driver bits
of the second patch in here, this provides
the flag for drivers to use to select unlocked
ioctls - but doesn't modify any drivers].

One problem in i915 hibernate with current legacy pci pm ops is
that after we do freeze, we'll be forced to do resume once again,
which re-init some resources and do modesetting again, that is
unnecessary for hibernate. This patch trys to bypass that.
We can't resolve this within legacy pm framework, but can do it
easily with new pm ops. Suspend (S3) process has also been kept
without change.

This patch adds a new flag to the drmWaitVblank ioctl, which asks the drm
to return immediately and notify userspace when the specified vblank sequence
happens by sending an event back on the drm fd.
The event mechanism works with the other flags supported by the ioctls,
specifically, the vblank sequence can be specified relatively or absolutely,
and works for primary and seconday crtc.
The signal field of the vblank request is used to provide user data,
which will be sent back to user space in the vblank event.

In commit c1c7af60892070e4b82ad63bbfb95ae745056de0 ("drm/i915: force
mode set at lid open time") the intel graphics driver was taught to
restore the LVDS mode on lid open.
That caused problems with interaction with the suspend/resume code,
which commonly runs at the same time (suspend is often caused by the lid
close event, while lid open is commonly a resume event), which was
worked around with in commit 06891e27a9b5dba5268bb80e41a283f51335afe7
("drm/i915: fix suspend/resume breakage in lid notifier").
However, in the meantime the lid event code had also grown a user event
notifier (commit 06324194eee97a51b5f172270df49ec39192d6cc: "drm/i915:
generate a KMS uevent at lid open/close time"), and now _that_ causes
problems with suspend/resume and some versions of Xorg reacting to those
uevents by setting the mode.
So this effectively reverts that commit 06324194ee, and makes the lid
open protection logic against suspend/resume more explicit. This fixes
at least one laptop. See
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14484
for more details.

We now unconditionally restore the mode at lid open time since some
platforms turn off the panel, pipes or other display elements when the
lid is closed. There's a problem with doing this at resume time
however.
At resume time, we'll get a lid event, but restoring the mode at that
time may not be safe (e.g. if we get the lid event before global state
has been restored), so check the suspended state and make sure our
restore is locked against other mode updates.

There are several sources of unnecessary power consumption on Intel
graphics systems. The first is the LVDS clock. TFTs don't suffer from
persistence issues like CRTs, and so we can reduce the LVDS refresh rate
when the screen is idle. It will be automatically upclocked when
userspace triggers graphical activity. Beyond that, we can enable memory
self refresh. This allows the memory to go into a lower power state when
the graphics are idle. Finally, we can drop some clocks on the gpu
itself. All of these things can be reenabled between frames when GPU
activity is triggered, and so there should be no user visible graphical
changes.

We need to save register state *after* idling GEM, clearing the ring,
and uninstalling the IRQ handler, or we might end up saving bogus
fence regs, for one. Our restore ordering should already be correct,
since we do GEM, ring and IRQ init after restoring the last register
state, which prevents us from clobbering things.

This commit adds i915 driver support for the DRM mode setting APIs.
Currently, VGA, LVDS, SDVO DVI & VGA, TV and DVO LVDS outputs are
supported. HDMI, DisplayPort and additional SDVO output support will
follow.
Support for the mode setting code is controlled by the new 'modeset'
module option. A new config option, CONFIG_DRM_I915_KMS controls the
default behavior, and whether a PCI ID list is built into the module for
use by user level module utilities.
Note that if mode setting is enabled, user level drivers that access
display registers directly or that don't use the kernel graphics memory
manager will likely corrupt kernel graphics memory, disrupt output
configuration (possibly leading to hangs and/or blank displays), and
prevent panic/oops messages from appearing. So use caution when
enabling this code; be sure your user level code supports the new
interfaces.
A new SysRq key, 'g', provides emergency support for switching back to
the kernel's framebuffer console; which is useful for testing.

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.

GEM allows the creation of persistent buffer objects accessible by the
graphics device through new ioctls for managing execution of commands on the
device. The userland API is almost entirely driver-specific to ensure that
any driver building on this model can easily map the interface to individual
driver requirements.
GEM is used by the 2d driver for managing its internal state allocations and
will be used for pixmap storage to reduce memory consumption and enable
zero-copy GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap, and in the 3d driver is used to enable
GL_EXT_framebuffer_object and GL_ARB_pixel_buffer_object.

Previously, drivers supporting vblank interrupt waits would run the interrupt
all the time, or all the time that any 3d client was running, preventing the
CPU from sleeping for long when the system was otherwise idle. Now, interrupts
are disabled any time that no client is waiting on a vblank event. The new
method uses vblank counters on the chipsets when the interrupts are turned
off, rather than counting interrupts, so that we can continue to present
