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

Linux 3.7-rc2

Backmerge to solve two ugly conflicts:
- uapi. We've already added new ioctl definitions for -next. Do I need to say more?
- wc support gtt ptes. We've had to revert this for snb+ for 3.7 and
also fix a few other things in the code. Now we know how to make it
work on snb+, but to avoid losing the other fixes do the backmerge
first before re-enabling wc gtt ptes on snb+.

And a few other minor things, among them git getting confused in
intel_dp.c and seemingly causing a conflict out of nothing ...

Merge commit '5bc66170dc486556a1e36fd384463536573f4b82' into x86/urgent

From Borislav Petkov <bp@amd64.org>:

Below is a RAS fix which reverts the addition of a sysfs attribute
which we agreed is not needed, post-factum. And this should go in now
because that sysfs attribute is going to end up in 3.7 otherwise and
thus exposed to userspace; removing it then would be a lot harder.

This is done as a merge rather than a simple patch/cherry-pick since
the baseline for this patch was not in the previous x86/urgent.

[SCSI] isci: Fix interrupt coalescing assumption of active TCs

We always assign a dummy task context to a port in order to address a
silicon issue. We have 4 ports per controller. So when idle, there are always
exactly 4 TCs "active". The adaptive interrupt coalescing code uses number of
active TCs to figure out the coalescing values. However, we never hit "0" TCs
because of the 4 dummy TCs. Putting in fix so that we calculate this correctly.

[SCSI] isci: Allow SSP tasks into the task management path.

This commit fixes a driver bug for SSP tasks that require task management
in the target after they complete in the SCU hardware. The problem was
manifested in the function "isci_task_abort_task", which tests
to see if the sas_task.lldd_task is non-NULL before allowing task
management; this bug would always NULL lldd_task in the SCU I/O completion
path even if target management was required, which would prevent
task / target manangement from happening.

Note that in the case of SATA/STP targets, error recovery is provided by
the libata error handler which is why SATA/STP device recovery worked
correctly even though SSP handling did not.
