Merge tag 'drm-next-2020-02-04' of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm/drm
Pull drm ttm/mm updates from Dave Airlie:
"Thomas Hellstrom has some more changes to the TTM layer that needed a
patch to the mm subsystem.
This adds a new mm API vmf_insert_mixed_prot to avoid an ugly hack
that has limitations in the TTM layer"
* tag 'drm-next-2020-02-04' of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm/drm:
mm, drm/ttm: Fix vm page protection handling
mm: Add a vmf_insert_mixed_prot() function
