parentdrm/i915: Unbind closed vma for i915_gem_object_unbind() (diff)
parentMerge tag 'drm-intel-next-2016-08-08' of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm-intel into drm-next (diff)
Merge remote-tracking branch 'airlied/drm-next' into drm-intel-next-queued
Backmerge because too many conflicts, and also we need to get at the latest struct fence patches from Gustavo. Requested by Chris Wilson. Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@intel.com>
