Merge tag 'topic/drm-misc-2015-11-26' of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm-intel into drm-next
Here's the first drm-misc pull, with really mostly misc stuff all over. Somewhat invasive is only Ville's change to mark the arg struct for fb_create const - that might conflict with a new driver pull. So better to get in fast. * tag 'topic/drm-misc-2015-11-26' of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm-intel: drm/mm: use list_next_entry drm/i915: fix potential dangling else problems in for_each_ macros drm: fix potential dangling else problems in for_each_ macros drm/sysfs: Send out uevent when connector->force changes drm/atomic: Small documentation fix. drm/mm: rewrite drm_mm_for_each_hole drm/sysfs: Grab lock for edid/modes_show drm: Print the src/dst/clip rectangles in error in drm_plane_helper drm: Add "prefix" parameter to drm_rect_debug_print() drm: Keep coordinates in the typical x, y, w, h order instead of x, y, h, w drm: Pass the user drm_mode_fb_cmd2 as const to .fb_create() drm: modes: replace simple_strtoul by kstrtouint drm: Describe the Rotation property bits. drm: Remove unused fbdev_list members GPU-DRM: Delete unnecessary checks before drm_property_unreference_blob() drm/dp: add eDP DPCD backlight control bit definitions drm/tegra: Remove local fbdev emulation Kconfig option drm/imx: Remove local fbdev emulation Kconfig option drm/gem: Update/Polish docs drm: Update GEM refcounting docs

DRM identifies the GEM object to be mapped by a fake offset passed
