This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled drm/vmwgfx: Fix incorrect write to read-only register v2: to the linux-3.11.y-queue branch of the 3.11.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.11.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.11.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From 69fb9b97a8bfc697add7595d6a2cedbd8bed65d1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Hellstrom <thellstrom@vmware.com> Date: Wed, 2 Jul 2014 15:47:04 +0200 Subject: drm/vmwgfx: Fix incorrect write to read-only register v2: commit 4e578080ed3262ed2c3985868539bc66218d25c0 upstream. Commit "drm/vmwgfx: correct fb_fix_screeninfo.line_length", while fixing a vmwgfx fbdev bug, also writes the pitch to a supposedly read-only register: SVGA_REG_BYTES_PER_LINE, while it should be (and also in fact is) written to SVGA_REG_PITCHLOCK. This patch is Cc'd stable because of the unknown effects writing to this register might have, particularly on older device versions. v2: Updated log message.
