c95344a557 ps3fb: Fix spurious mode change failures
ps3fb: Add a `mode' parameter to ps3fb_get_res_table(), as in some cases it
should check the full-screen flag of the _new_ video mode instead of the
current video mode.

This bug caused spurious mode change failures when switching between
fullscreen and non-fullscreen modes using fbset, while ps3-video-mode worked
fine.

84902b7af6 fbdev: change asm/uaccess.h to linux/uaccess.h
This patch replaces <asm/uaccess.h> with <linux/uaccess.h> after the
checkpatch.pl hint.  The include of <asm/uaccess.h> is removed if the driver
does not use it.

8314418629 Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by default
Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves.  This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.

It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.

The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie.  to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE.  It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear.  Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.

310d8c1112 [PATCH] ps3: Virtual Frame Buffer Driver
Add the PS3 Virtual Frame Buffer Driver.

As the actual graphics hardware cannot be accessed directly by Linux, ps3fb
uses a virtual frame buffer in main memory.  The actual screen image is copied
to graphics memory by the GPU on every vertical blank, by making a hypervisor
call.
