Current vga arbiter implementation in i915 needs a re-design.
The current approach would cause real problems if anyone actually
needs to talk another GPU using legacy VGA resources.
The main issue is that X becomes a slideshow if it thinks there
are multiple GPUs that have VGA decoding enabled as it insists
on adjusting the VGA routing pretty much for every little operation
involving any of the GPUs.
The cleanup will be planned for i915. Meanwhile to focus on Xe
upstreaming and have a cleaner separation, the said functionality
is being moved to a different file exclusive for i915. Xe driver
will re-use rest of the display code from i915.
v2: Addressed Jani Nikula's review comments.
v3: Dropped a duplicate function (Jani)
v4: Updated commit message with reasoning as sugested by Ville.

Turns out many of the files that need i915_reg.h get it implicitly via
{display/intel_de.h, gt/intel_context.h} -> i915_trace.h -> i915_irq.h
-> i915_reg.h. Since i915_trace.h doesn't actually need i915_irq.h,
makes sense to drop it, but that requires adding quite a few new
includes all over the place.
Prefer including i915_reg.h where needed instead of adding another
implicit include, because eventually we'll want to split up i915_reg.h
and only include the specific registers at each place.
Also some places actually needed i915_irq.h too.

- Assorted fixes to dma-buf.
- Extend x86 efifb handling to all archs.
- Fix neofb divide by 0.
- Document corpro,gm7123 bridge dt bindings.
Core Changes:
- Slightly rework drm master handling.
- Cleanup vgaarb handling.
- Assorted fixes.
Driver Changes:
- Add support for ws2401 panel.

Currently as the workaround is applied the screen flickers. As a result
we do not achieve seamless boot experience.
Avoiding the issue in the common use-case might be hard, although we can
resolve it for dual GPU setups - when the "other" GPU is primary and/or
outputs are connected to it.
With this I was able to get seamless experience on my Intel/Nvidia box,
running systemd-boot and sddm/Xorg. Note that the i915 driver is within
initrd while the Nvidia one is not.
Without this patch, the splash presented by systemd-boot (UEFI BGRT) is
torn down as the code-path kicks in, leaving the monitor blank until the
login manager starts.
Same issue were reported with plymouth/grub, although personally I
wasn't able to get them to behave on my setup.

Use Coccinelle to convert most of the usage of INTEL_GEN() and IS_GEN()
in the display code to use DISPLAY_VER() comparisons instead. The
following semantic patch was used:
@@ expression dev_priv, E; @@
- INTEL_GEN(dev_priv) == E
+ IS_DISPLAY_VER(dev_priv, E)
@@ expression dev_priv; @@
- INTEL_GEN(dev_priv)
+ DISPLAY_VER(dev_priv)
@@ expression dev_priv; expression E; @@
- IS_GEN(dev_priv, E)

@@
expression dev_priv;
expression from, until;
@@
- IS_GEN_RANGE(dev_priv, from, until)
+ IS_DISPLAY_RANGE(dev_priv, from, until)
There are still some display-related uses of INTEL_GEN() in intel_pm.c
(watermark code) and i915_irq.c. Those will be updated separately.
v2:
- Use new IS_DISPLAY_RANGE and IS_DISPLAY_VER helpers. (Jani)
