2013-11-15kfifo API type safetyStefani Seibold
This patch enhances the type safety for the kfifo API. It is now safe to put const data into a non const FIFO and the API will now generate a compiler warning when reading from the fifo where the destination address is pointing to a const variable. As a side effect the kfifo_put() does now expect the value of an element instead a pointer to the element. This was suggested Russell King. It make the handling of the kfifo_put easier since there is no need to create a helper variable for getting the address of a pointer or to pass integers of different sizes. IMHO the API break is okay, since there are currently only six users of kfifo_put(). The code is also cleaner by kicking out the "if (0)" expressions.

2013-08-19drm: add flip-work helperRob Clark
A small helper to queue up work to do, from workqueue context, after a flip. Typically useful to defer unreffing buffers that may be read by the display controller until vblank. v1: original v2: wire up docbook + couple docbook fixes Signed-off-by: Rob Clark <robdclark@gmail.com> Acked-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>
