      [media] move i2c files into drivers/media/i2c · 1daae517
      Mauro Carvalho Chehab authored 
      Based on a patch from Sylvester Nawrocki

This fixes regression introduced with commmit cb7a01ac,
"[media] move i2c files into drivers/media/i2c".

The linked order affect what drivers will be initialized first, when
they're built-in at Kernel. While there are macros that allow changing
the init order, like subsys_initcall(), late_initcall() & friends,
when all drivers  linked belong to the same subsystem, it is easier
to change the order at the Makefile.

All I2C modules must be linked before any drivers that actually use it,
in order to ensure proper module initialization order.

Also, the core drivers should be initialized before the drivers that use
them.

This patch reorders the drivers init, in order to fulfill the above
requirements.

Trivial conflict in drivers/video/console/fbcon.c due to me having

 "The executive summary includes:

  Thanks again to everyone who contributed a bugfix patch, gave review
  feedback on tcm_vhost code, and/or reported a bug during their own
  testing over the last weeks.

  There is one other outstanding bug reported by Roland recently related
  to SCSI transfer length overflow handling, for which the current
  proposed bugfix has been left in queue pending further testing with
  other non iscsi-target based fabric drivers.

  As the patch is verified with loopback (local SGL memory from SCSI
  LLD) + tcm_qla2xxx (TCM allocated SGL memory mapped to PCI HW) fabric
  ports, it will be included into the next 3.6-rc-fixes PULL request."

      It seems commit 4a9d4b02 (switch fput to task_work_add) reintroduced
the problem addressed in commit 944be0b2 (close_files(): add scheduling
point)

If a server process with a lot of files (say 2 million tcp sockets)
is killed, we can spend a lot of time in task_work_run() and trigger
a soft lockup.

      fbcon: fix race condition between console lock and cursor timer (v1.1) · d8636a27
      Dave Airlie authored 
      So we've had a fair few reports of fbcon handover breakage between
efi/vesafb and i915 surface recently, so I dedicated a couple of
days to finding the problem.

Essentially the last thing we saw was the conflicting framebuffer
message and that was all.

So after much tracing with direct netconsole writes (printks
under console_lock not so useful), I think I found the race.

Thread A (driver load)    Thread B (timer thread)
  unbind_con_driver ->              |
  bind_con_driver ->                |
  vc->vc_sw->con_deinit ->          |
  fbcon_deinit ->                   |
  console_lock()                    |
      |                             |
      |                       fbcon_flashcursor timer fires
      |                       console_lock() <- blocked for A
      |
      |
fbcon_del_cursor_timer ->
  del_timer_sync
  (BOOM)

Of course because all of this is under the console lock,
we never see anything, also since we also just unbound the active
console guess what we never see anything.

Hopefully this fixes the problem for anyone seeing vesafb->kms
driver handoff.

v1.1: add comment suggestion from Alan.
