Unofficial patches for Mali Midgard GPU r16p0 kernel drivers on 4.11.0-rcX kernels

Greetings,

Here's a list of unofficial patches required to compile the r16p0 version of the Mali Midgard GPU Kernel device drivers, after including them in 4.11.0-rcX kernels :

• https://github.com/Miouyouyou/MyyQi/blob/master/patches/Mali/r16p0-00rel0/0001-Midgard-daptation-to-Linux-4.10.0-rcX-signatures.patch
• https://github.com/Miouyouyou/MyyQi/blob/master/patches/Mali/r16p0-00rel0/0002-UMP-Adapt-get_user_pages-calls.patch
• https://github.com/Miouyouyou/MyyQi/blob/master/patches/Mali/r16p0-00rel0/0003-Renamed-Kernel-DMA-Fence-structures-and-functions.patch
• https://github.com/Miouyouyou/MyyQi/blob/master/patches/Mali/r16p0-00rel0/0004-Few-modifications-after-v4.11-headers-and-signatures.patch

These patches are due to the following mainline kernel changes :

• mm, fs: reduce fault, page_mkwrite, and pfn_mkwrite to take only vmf
  Introduced in Linux : 4.11
• sched/headers: Move task->mm handling methods to <linux/sched/mm.h>
  Introduced in Linux : 4.11
• sched/headers: Move task-stack related APIs from <linux/sched.h> to <linux/sched/task_stack.h>
  Introduced in Linux : 4.11
• dma-buf: Rename struct fence to dma_fence
  Introduced in Linux : 4.9
• mm: add locked parameter to get_user_pages_remote()
  Introduced in Linux : 4.10
• ktime: Get rid of the union
  Introduced in Linux : 4.10
• mm: use vmf->address instead of of vmf->virtual_address
  Introduced in Linux : 4.10
• mm, dax, gpu: convert vm_insert_mixed to pfn_t
  Introduced in Linux : 4.5

The patches required to enable the compilation of Mali Midgard GPU drivers and UMP drivers, after copying the drivers package TX011-SW-99002-r16p0-00rel0/driver/product/kernel/ content in your linux kernel base directory, are available here .

• https://github.com/Miouyouyou/MyyQi/blob/master/patches/kernel/v4.11/0003-Post-Mali-Kernel-device-drivers-modifications.patch
• https://github.com/Miouyouyou/MyyQi/blob/master/patches/kernel/v4.11/0004-Post-Mali-UMP-integration.patch

A full kernel download, patch and compilation procedure for MiQi RK3288 ARMv7 boards is available here : https://github.com/Miouyouyou/MyyQi .
The procedure includes the download of the Linux 4.11-rc1 kernel and the Mali r16p0-00rel0 kernel drivers.

The last patch, only useful for Linux 4.11 kernels, is also attached to this post.
