commit ce10d7b4e8e3574b9616e54a09d64521b9aeb8b6 upstream.

The x and y hints receives from the host are unsigned 32 bit integers and
they get set to -1 (0xffffffff) when invalid. Before this commit the
vboxvideo driver was storing them in an u16 causing the -1 to be truncated
to 65535 which, once reported to userspace, was breaking gnome 3.26+
in Wayland mode.

This commit stores the host values in 32 bit variables, removing the
truncation and checks for -1, replacing it with 0 as -1 is not a valid
suggested-offset-property value. Likewise the properties are now
initialized to 0 instead of -1, since -1 is not a valid value.
This fixes gnome 3.26+ in Wayland mode not working with the vboxvideo
driver.

<title>License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license</title>

<content type='text'>
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode &amp; Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained &gt;5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if &lt;5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Pull staging/IIO driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big staging and IIO driver update for 4.14-rc1.

  Lots of staging driver fixes and cleanups, including some reorginizing
  of the lustre header files to try to impose some sanity on what is,
  and what is not, the uapi for that filesystem.

  There are some tty core changes in here as well, as the speakup
  drivers need them, and that's ok with me, they are sane and the
  speakup code is getting nicer because of it.

  There is also the addition of the obiligatory new wifi driver, just
  because it has been a release or two since we added our last one...

  Other than that, lots and lots of small coding style fixes, as usual.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  issues"

<title>staging: vboxvideo: Use CONFIG_DRM_KMS_FB_HELPER to check for fbdefio availability</title>

<content type='text'>
Checking for CONFIG_FB_DEFERRED_IO is not the right thing to do since
the fbdev code may be built as a module while vboxvideo is builtin.

This can only happen when DRM_KMS_FB_HELPER is not set:
a) DRM_VBOXVIDEO selects DRM_KMS_HELPER
b) DRM_KMS_FB_HELPER depends on DRM_KMS_HELPER
c) DRM_KMS_FB_HELPER selects FB_DEFERRED_IO

So when DRM_KMS_FB_HELPER is set and vboxvideo is builtin then
FB_DEFERRED_IO must be builtin too.

This commit moves the #ifdefs around fbdefio code over to
CONFIG_DRM_KMS_FB_HELPER, as other drm drivers already do, fixing:

drivers/staging/vboxvideo/vbox_fb.o: In function `vbox_fbdev_fini':
vbox_fb.c:(.text+0x36): undefined reference to `fb_deferred_io_cleanup'

compatibility alias for drm_*_get() and drm_*_put() adn should not be
used by new code. So convert all users of compatibility functions to use

vboxvideo code uses various ttm_* functions, so it needs
"drivers/gpu/drm/ttm/*" to be built. In order to build these objects
select DRM_TTM.

This commit fixes "ttm_*" undefined build errors.
