Merge tag 'tags/drm-for-v4.12' into drm-intel-next-queued
Backmerge the main drm-next pull to sync up. Chris also pointed out that commit ade0b0c965f59176daddbef9c4717354034f9bce Author: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Date: Sat Apr 22 09:15:37 2017 +0100 drm/i915: Confirm the request is still active before adding it to the await is double-applied in the git merge, so make sure we get this right.
