Merge tag 'v3.9-rc3' into drm-intel-next-queued
Backmerge so that I can merge Imre Deak's coalesced sg entries fixes, which depend upon the new for_each_sg_page introduce in commit a321e91b6d73ed011ffceed384c40d2785cf723b Author: Imre Deak <imre.deak@intel.com> Date: Wed Feb 27 17:02:56 2013 -0800 lib/scatterlist: add simple page iterator The merge itself is just two trivial conflicts: Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>
