More bug reports, more bug fixes! Perhaps the headline feature is
that with secure batches, coming to a 3.8 kernel near you, we may
finally have the ability to perform updates to the scanout synchronized
to the refresh rate on later SandyBridge and IvyBridge chipsets. It comes
at quite a power cost as we need to keep the GPU out of its power saving
modes, but it should allow legacy vsync to function at last. But this
should allow us to address a longstanding issue with tearing on
SandyBridge+.

 * Fix component-alpha rendering on IvyBridge, for example subpixel
   antialiased glyphs.
   https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56037

 * Flush before some "pipelined" state changes on gen4. The evidence is
   that the same flushes as required on gen5+ are also required for gen4.
   https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55627

 * Prevent a potential crash when forcing a stall on a busy CPU bo

[Release 2.20.11 contained a typo causing UXA to fail immediately.]

Chris Wilson (14):
      sna: Drop fake tiled CPU mapping
      sna/gen7: Filter BLEND flags for CA glyphs
      sna/dri: Defensively check for GTT mmap failure during fallback
      sna: Enable support for SECURE batch buffers
      sna: Use the secure batches to program scanline waits on gen6+
      sna/overlay: Move bo out of GTT domain after binding to overlay plane
      sna: secure batches accepted upstream, so simply use runtime detection
      sna/gen4: Presume we need a flush upon state change similar to gen5+
      sna: Reorder final checks for using the BO and setting the damage pointer
      sna: Clear the damage along with the BO when forcing the stall for inplace BLT
      uxa: Disable bo reuse after binding to a scanout
      2.20.11 release
      uxa: Fixup drm_intel_bo_disable_reuse() typo
      2.20.12 release
