Merge tag 'v4.3-rc2' into topic/drm-misc
Backmerge Linux 4.3-rc2 because of conflicts in the dp helper code between bugfixes and new code. Just adjacent lines really. On top of that there's a silent conflict in the new fsl-dcu driver merged into 4.3 and commit 844f9111f6f54f88eb2f0fac121b82ce77193866 Author: Maarten Lankhorst <maarten.lankhorst@linux.intel.com> Date: Wed Sep 2 10:42:40 2015 +0200 drm/atomic: Make prepare_fb/cleanup_fb only take state, v3. which Thierry Reding spotted and provided a fixup for. Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@intel.com>

+# To use this script you will need to have installed package python-pyside which
+# provides LGPL-licensed Python bindings for Qt. You will also need the package
+# libqt4-sql-psql for Qt postgresql support.
+#
+# The script assumes postgresql is running on the local machine and that the
+# user has postgresql permissions to create databases. Examples of installing
+# postgresql and adding such a user are:
+#
+# fedora:
+#
+# $ sudo yum install postgresql postgresql-server python-pyside qt-postgresql
+# $ sudo su - postgres -c initdb
+# $ sudo service postgresql start
+# $ sudo su - postgres
+# $ createuser <your user id here>
+# Shall the new role be a superuser? (y/n) y
+#
+# ubuntu:
+#
+# $ sudo apt-get install postgresql
+# $ sudo su - postgres
+# $ createuser <your user id here>
+# Shall the new role be a superuser? (y/n) y
+#
+# An example of using this script with Intel PT:

+# $ perf record -e intel_pt//u ls
