| |
3.11.10.14 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Thomas Hellstrom <thellstrom@vmware.com>
commit 4e578080ed3262ed2c3985868539bc66218d25c0 upstream.
Commit "drm/vmwgfx: correct fb_fix_screeninfo.line_length", while fixing a vmwgfx fbdev bug, also writes the pitch to a supposedly read-only register: SVGA_REG_BYTES_PER_LINE, while it should be (and also in fact is) written to SVGA_REG_PITCHLOCK.
This patch is Cc'd stable because of the unknown effects writing to this register might have, particularly on older device versions.
v2: Updated log message.
