Just a few small things to fix regressions, somehow all patches from Jani:
- Fix dpms confusion about which platforms support intermediate modes on
vga.
- Revert the "ignore vbt for eDP bpc" patch, it breaks machines. This will
annoy mbp retina owners again, but windows machines seem to _really_
depend upon this. We can try to quirk the mbp retinas again in 3.8 and
backport the patch.
- Fix connector leaks when the sdvo setup failed, resulted in an OOPS
later on when trying to probe that connector (with it's encoder kfree'd
already).
* 'drm-intel-fixes' of git://people.freedesktop.org/~danvet/drm-intel:
drm/i915: do not ignore eDP bpc settings from vbt
drm/i915/sdvo: clean up connectors on intel_sdvo_init() failures
drm/i915/crt: fix DPMS standby and suspend mode handling

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).
The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:
1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.
2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
restricted regions of memory.
3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
switch.
4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
Documentation on the DRI is available from:
