Produced this on my own based on the errors and kernel changes: torvalds/linux@3d35390 This is an intentional breaking change forcing drivers to acknowledge that the return type of vm_vault handlers has changed to vm_fault_t and that VM_FAULT_* must be returned. The driver only needs to be fixed to actually return vm_fault_t, it already returns VM_FAULT_* values. torvalds/linux@fcd70cd Some DRM helper functions were moved to a separate header.

Sorry this doesn't actually work with these drivers, I was testing this with 418 drivers. I tried backporting but hit some issue about apparent breakage in linux acpi headers: |

I managed to fix that but there are more errors, I don't think it is reasonable to keep trying to patch this version. |

This is an intentional breaking change forcing drivers to acknowledge that the
return type of vm_vault handlers has changed to vm_fault_t and that VM_FAULT_*
must be returned. The driver only needs to be fixed to actually return vm_fault_t,
it already returns VM_FAULT_* values.
torvalds/linux@fcd70cd
Some DRM helper functions were moved to a separate header.
Motivation for this change
Drivers do not build with kernel 5.1.
Things done
Builds without warning/errors and runs without obvious problem on my system with kernel 5.1. Plasma desktop with compositing and some random WebGL samples work fine. I think a few more people should test it.
