    drm/i915: fix freeze with blank screen booting highmem · 88b98287
    Hugh Dickins 提交于
    x86_64 boots and displays fine, but booting x86_32 with CONFIG_HIGHMEM
    has frozen with a blank screen throughout 3.16-rc on this ThinkPad T420s,
    with i915 generation 6 graphics.
    
    Fix 9d0a6fa6 ("drm/i915: add render state initialization"): kunmap()
    takes struct page * argument, not virtual address.  Which the compiler
    kindly points out, if you use the appropriate u32 *batch, instead of
    silencing it with a void *.
    
    Why did bisection lead decisively to nearby 229b0489 ("drm/i915:
    add null render states for gen6, gen7 and gen8")?  Because the u32
    deposited at that virtual address by the previous stub failed the
    PageHighMem test, and so did no harm.
