3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alex Deucher <alexander.deucher@amd.com>

commit 804cc4a0ad3a896ca295f771a28c6eb36ced7903 upstream.

The save struct is not initialized previously so explicitly
mark the crtcs as not used when they are not in use.

Hm.  If this is needed in 3.2, presumably it's needed in 3.6 as well.  I
don't see it queued for 3.6.9, and the Cc: tag is there.

Greg, Alex, was this just something that was missed, or am I wrong about
it needing to go into 3.6?

The original patches should go into 3.6 kernels as well:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commitdiff;h=4a15903db02026728d0cf2755c6fabae16b8db6a
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commitdiff;h=62444b7462a2b98bc78d68736c03a7c4e66ba7e2

I've been meaning to follow up on it, but I haven't had the time.  Do
I need to send explicit patches to stable@vger or can I just ask the
above commits be cherrypicked to 3.6?

It depends on whether they *can* be cleanly cherry-picked.  You'll
presumably want them applied to all of 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6.

Ben.
