Chris Wilson 266a240bf0 drm/i915: Use engine->context_pin() to report the intel_ring
Since unifying ringbuffer/execlist submission to use
engine->pin_context, we ensure that the intel_ring is available before
we start constructing the request. We can therefore move the assignment
of the request->ring to the central i915_gem_request_alloc() and not
require it in every engine->request_alloc() callback. Another small step
towards simplification (of the core, but at a cost of handling error
pointers in less important callers of engine->pin_context).

v2: Rearrange a few branches to reduce impact of PTR_ERR() on gcc's code
generation.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
