    drm/i915: Handle ERESTARTSYS during page fault · c715089f
    Chris Wilson authored
    During a page fault and rebinding the buffer there exists a window for a
    signal to arrive during the i915_wait_request() and trigger a
    ERESTARTSYS. This used to be handled by returning SIGBUS and thereby
    killing the application. Try 'cairo-perf-trace & cairo-test-suite' and
    watch X go boom!
    
    The solution as suggested by H. Peter Anvin is to simply return NOPAGE and
    leave the higher layers to spot we did not fill the page and resubmit
    the page fault.
