[PATCH 0/9] drm: Add support for tiny LCD displays

["Noralf Trønnes" <noralf-L59+Z2yzLopAfugRpC6u6w@public.gmane.org>]

This is an attempt at providing a DRM version of drivers/staging/fbtft.

The tinydrm library provides a very simplified view of DRM in particular
for tiny displays that has onboard video memory and is connected through
a slow bus like SPI/I2C.

Main changes since the RFCv2 in April last year:
- No tinydrm specific callbacks (dirtyfb+drm_panel_funcs), instead use
  drm_simple_display_pipe_funcs and drm_framebuffer_funcs directly in
  drivers and controller libraries.
- Drop lcdreg abstraction. MIPI DCS isn't really about registers, but
  rather commands with optional parameters. regmap is probably a good
  fit for the other more register oriented controllers.

I will cut back on some of the DRM_DEBUG*() usage when the api has settled.


Noralf.


Changes since RFC v2:
- Rebased on new core helpers
- Don't use drm_panel
- Flush when the framebuffer is changed on the plane
- Add devm_tinydrm_init()
- Fix PRIME support, set vaddr
- Use atomic helpers in suspend/resume
- Add a tinydrm_connector with one display mode
- Set mode_config.preferred_depth and use it for fbdev
- Subclass tinydrm_device in drivers instead of bloating the structure
- The PiTFT display uses a MI0283QT panel, write driver for that instead.
- Drop homegrown lcdreg module, it ended up as a collection of special
  cases.
- Add more documentation

Changes since RFC v1:
- Add fb_deferred_io support to drm_fb_helper and drm_fb_cma_helper,
  and use drm_fb_cma_helper instead.
- Move display pipeline code to drm_simple_kms_helper.
- Don't use (struct drm_driver *)->load().
- Make tinydrm more like a library, exporting the internals.
- Move the struct drm_driver definition from the tinydrm module to the
  driver using a helper macro: TINYDRM_DRM_DRIVER.
- Remove dirtyfb() async code.
- Added support for partial display updates.
