Partially applied: Re: [Lucid][pull request] Update to 2.6.32.17

[Steve Conklin]

Applied through the commit described as "Linux 2.6.32.17+drm33.7"

Commits after this one were DRM patches from the upstream stable .34 drm
tree, and there is ongoing discussion within the stable update team
about these patches, their application, and versioning.
