vmware tools has a daemon that gets layout information from the GUI and forwards it to DRM so that the modesetting code can set preferred connector locations and modes. This daemon was using control nodes but since control nodes were just removed, make it possible for the daemon to use render- or primary nodes instead. This is a bit ugly but will allow drm to proceed with removal of the mostly unused control-node code and allow vmware to proceed with fixing up automatic layout settings for gnome-shell/wayland. We bump minor to inform user-space about the api change.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
