[PATCH 1/6] drm/i915: Fix lock order reversal in GTT pwrite path.

From: Eric Anholt
Date: Wed Mar 25 2009 - 17:46:41 EST


Since the pagefault path determines that the lock order we use has to be
mmap_sem -> struct_mutex, we can't allow page faults to occur while the
struct_mutex is held. To fix this in pwrite, we first try optimistically to
see if we can copy from user without faulting. If it fails, fall back to
using get_user_pages to pin the user's memory, and map those pages
atomically when copying it to the GPU.
