1feba03f72 drm/ast: switch to drm_*_get(), drm_*_put() helpers
Use drm_*_get() and drm_*_put() helpers instead of drm_*_reference()
and drm_*_unreference() helpers.

drm_*_reference() and drm_*_unreference() functions are just
compatibility alias for drm_*_get() and drm_*_put() and should not be
used by new code. So convert all users of compatibility functions to
use the new APIs.

3bffd9629e drm: ast: remove dead code and pointless local lut storage
The redundant fb helpers .load_lut, .gamma_set and .gamma_get are
no longer used. Remove the dead code and hook up the crtc .gamma_set
to use the crtc gamma_store directly instead of duplicating that
info locally.

e1923ab3d0 drm/<drivers>: Drop fbdev info flags
- FBINFO_CAN_FORCE_OUTPUT has been a lie ever since we nerfed&removed
  the entire panic handling code in our fbdev emulation. We might
  restore kms panic output, but not through the bazillion of legacy
  code layers called fbdev/fbcon, there's just no way to make that
  work safely.

- With the module check change FBINFO_DEFAULT is always 0, so can be
  removed too.

That removes another change to cargo-cult stuff in kms drivers, yay!

e4563f6ba7 drm: Rely on mode_config data for fb_helper initialization
Instead of receiving the num_crts as a parameter, we can read it
directly from the mode_config structure.  I audited the drivers that
invoke this helper and I believe all of them initialize the mode_config
struct accordingly, prior to calling the fb_helper.

I used the following coccinelle hack to make this transformation, except
for the function headers and comment updates.  The first and second
rules are split because I couldn't find a way to remove the unused
temporary variables at the same time I removed the parameter.

272725c7db drm: Nuke fb->bits_per_pixel
Replace uses of fb->bits_per_pixel with fb->format->cpp[0]*8.
Less duplicated information is a good thing.

Note that I didn't put parens around the cpp*8 in the below cocci script,
on account of not wanting spurious parens all over the place. Instead I
did the unsafe way, and tried to look over the entire diff to spot if
any dangerous expressions were produced. I didn't see any.

There are some cases where previously the code did X*bpp/8, so the
division happened after the multiplication. Those are now just X*cpp
so the division effectively happens before the multiplication,
but that is perfectly fine since bpp is always a multiple of 8.

10a2310265 drm: Introduce drm_fb_helper_prepare()
To implement hotplug detection in a race-free manner, drivers must call
drm_kms_helper_poll_init() before hotplug events can be triggered. Such
events can be triggered right after any of the encoders or connectors
are initialized. At the same time, if the drm_fb_helper_hotplug_event()
helper is used by a driver, then the poll helper requires some parts of
the FB helper to be initialized to prevent a crash.

At the same time, drm_fb_helper_init() requires information that is not
necessarily available at such an early stage (number of CRTCs and
connectors), so it cannot be used yet.

Add a new helper, drm_fb_helper_prepare(), that initializes the bare
minimum needed to allow drm_kms_helper_poll_init() to execute and any
subsequent hotplug events to be processed properly.

306373b645 drm/ast: deal with bo reserve fail in dirty update path
Port over the mgag200 fix to ast as it suffers the same issue.

    On F19 testing, it was noticed we get a lot of errors in dmesg
    about being unable to reserve the buffer when plymouth starts,
    this is due to the buffer being in the process of migrating,
    so it makes sense we can't reserve it.

    In order to deal with it, this adds delayed updates for the dirty
    updates, when the bo is unreservable, in the normal console case
    this shouldn't ever happen, its just when plymouth or X is
    pushing the console bo to system memory.

362063619c drm: revamp framebuffer cleanup interfaces
We have two classes of framebuffer
- Created by the driver (atm only for fbdev), and the driver holds
  onto the last reference count until destruction.
- Created by userspace and associated with a given fd. These
  framebuffers will be reaped when their assoiciated fb is closed.

Now these two cases are set up differently, the framebuffers are on
different lists and hence destruction needs to clean up different
things. Also, for userspace framebuffers we remove them from any
current usage, whereas for internal framebuffers it is assumed that
the driver has done this already.

Long story short, we need two different ways to cleanup such drivers.
Three functions are involved in total:
- drm_framebuffer_remove: Convenience function which removes the fb
  from all active usage and then drops the passed-in reference.
- drm_framebuffer_unregister_private: Will remove driver-private
  framebuffers from relevant lists and drop the corresponding
  references. Should be called for driver-private framebuffers before
  dropping the last reference (or like for a lot of the drivers where
  the fbdev is embedded someplace else, before doing the cleanup
  manually).
- drm_framebuffer_cleanup: Final cleanup for both classes of fbs,
  should be called by the driver's ->destroy callback once the last
  reference is gone.

This patch just rolls out the new interfaces and updates all drivers
(by adding calls to drm_framebuffer_unregister_private at all the
right places)- no functional changes yet. Follow-on patches will move
drm core code around and update the lifetime management for
framebuffers, so that we are no longer required to keep framebuffers
alive by locking mode_config.mutex.

I've also updated the kerneldoc already.

vmwgfx seems to again be a bit special, at least I haven't figured out
how the fbdev support in that driver works. It smells like it's
external though.

v2: The i915 driver creates another private framebuffer in the
load-detect code. Adjust its cleanup code, too.

312fec1405 drm: Initial KMS driver for AST (ASpeed Technologies) 2000 series (v2)
This is the initial driver for the Aspeed Technologies chips found in
servers. This driver supports the AST 2000, 2100, 2200, 2150 and 2300. It
doesn't support the AST11xx due to lack of hw to test it on, and them requiring
different codepaths.

This driver is intended to be used with xf86-video-modesetting in userspace.

This driver has a slightly different design than other KMS drivers, but
future server chips will probably share similiar setup. As these GPUs commonly
have low video RAM, it doesn't make sense to put the kms console in VRAM
always. This driver places the kms console into system RAM, and does dirty
updates to a copy in video RAM. When userspace sets a new scanout buffer,
it forcefully evicts the video RAM console, and X can create a framebuffer
that can use all of of video RAM.

This driver uses TTM but in a very simple fashion to control the eviction
to system RAM of the console, and multiple servers.

v2: add s/r support, fix Kconfig.
