[REVIEW] drm/i915 updates to fix LP Bug#189260

Solving the suspend/resume issues with the i915 chipset requires
updating the driver to a more recent version. Since there are later
fixes to suspend/resume related code, too, I included all i915 related
patches up to the current upstream head.
This has some dependencies to the generic drm code as well. Especially
the update to the drm sysfs support (which adds the suspend/resume
callbacks). Maybe some drm changes could be saved when excluding those
patches that add new chipset/pci ids and introduce some hardware
wrappers. But on the other hand it might be better to have a clean state
of the driver than one somewhere in between. I left out the patch to the
vblanc code (also suggested in the LP Bug) because this seems to be even
more hairy than this.
What are your thoughts on that?
