Thomas Zimmermann 7f5535fcbb drm/fbdev: Add memory-agnostic fbdev client ...

[ Upstream commit 5d08c44e47 ]

Add an fbdev client that can work with any memory manager. The
client implementation is the same as existing code in fbdev-dma or
fbdev-shmem.

Provide struct drm_driver.fbdev_probe for the new client to allocate
the surface GEM buffer. The new callback replaces fb_probe of struct
drm_fb_helper_funcs, which does the same.

To use the new client, DRM drivers set fbdev_probe in their struct
drm_driver instance and call drm_fbdev_client_setup(). Probing and
creating the fbdev surface buffer is now independent from the other
operations in struct drm_fb_helper. For the pixel format, the fbdev
client either uses a specified format, the value in preferred_depth
or 32-bit RGB.

v2:
- test for struct drm_fb_helper.funcs for NULL (Sui)
- respect struct drm_mode_config.preferred_depth for default format
