UAPI Changes:
- Add support for DMA-BUF HEAPS.

Cross-subsystem Changes:
- mipi dsi definition updates, pulled into drm-intel as well.
- Add lockdep annotations for dma_resv vs mmap_sem and fs_reclaim.

- Add drm/rect selftests.
- Add aspect ratio and alternate clocks for HDMI 4k modes.
- Add todo for drm_framebuffer_funcs and fb_create cleanup.
- Drop DRM_AUTH for prime import/export ioctls.
- Clear DP-MST payload id tables downstream when initializating.
- Fix for DSC throughput definition.
- Add extra FEC definitions.
- Fix fake offset in drm_gem_object_funs.mmap.
- Stop using encoder->bridge in core directly
- Handle bridge chaining slightly better.
- Add backlight support to drm/panel, and use it in many panel drivers.
- Increase max number of y420 modes from 128 to 256, as preparation to add the new modes.

Driver Changes:
- Small fixes all over.
- Fix documentation in vkms.
- Fix mmap_sem vs dma_resv in nouveau.
- Small cleanup in komeda.
- Add page flip support in gma500 for psb/cdv.
- Add ddc symlink in the connector sysfs directory for many drivers.
- Add support for analogic an6345, and fix small bugs in it.
- Add atomic modesetting support to ast.
- Fix radeon fault handler VMA race.
- Switch udl to use generic shmem helpers.
- Unconditional vblank handling for mcde.
- Miscellaneous fixes to mcde.

- Add gamma and color transform support to komeda for DOU-IPS.
- Add support for sony acx424AKP panel.
- Various small cleanups to gma500.
- Use generic fbdev emulation in udl, and replace udl_framebuffer with generic implementation.
- Add support for Logic PD Type 28 panel.
- Use drm_panel_* wrapper functions in exynos/tegra/msm.
- Add devicetree bindings for generic DSI panels.
- Don't include drm_pci.h directly in many drivers.

- Add support for Boe Himax8279d MIPI-DSI LCD panel.
- Add support for ingenic JZ4770 panel.
- Small null pointer deference fix in ingenic.
- Remove support for the special tfp420 driver, as there is a generic way to do it.
