[PATCH v3 0/3] drm/sitronix/st7920: Add support for the ST7920 controller

[Iker Pedrosa <ikerpedrosam@gmail.com>]

This patch-series adds support for the Sitronix ST7920 controller, which
is a monochrome dot-matrix graphical LCD controller that has SPI and
parallel interfaces.

The st7920 driver only has support for SPI so displays using other
transport protocols are currently not supported.

* Patch #1 adds the driver.
* Patch #2 adds the DT binding schema.
* Patch #3 adds the MAINTAINERS information.

---
Changes in v3:
- Reorganize the patch documenting compatible (DT bindings) before their
  use.
- Drop reduntant information from DT bindings.
- Use a goto label to ensure drm_dev_exit() is called in the error path
  of drm_gem_fb_begin_cpu_access().
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250909-st7920-v2-0-409f4890fb5f@gmail.com

Changes in v2:
- Refactor SPI communication:
  * Internalize error handling and delays within the st7920_spi_write()
    helper.
  * Split the main SPI write function into smaller, command-specific
    helpers for clarity.
- Improve DRM/KMS logic:
  * Relocate CPU access calls (drm_gem_fb...) to the atomic_update hook.
  * Use standard DRM helpers (drm_crtc_helper_mode_valid_fixed and
    drm_connector_helper_get_modes_fixed) for mode validation and
    creation.
- General code cleanup:
  * Remove dead code related to ST7920_FAMILY.
  * Replace WARN_ON() with drm_WARN_ON_ONCE().
  * Ensure single variable assignments per line.
- Fix probe initialization order:
  * Move spi_set_drvdata() and st7920_init() to occur before device
    registration.
- Devicetree:
  * Update bindings to address feedback from review (e.g., reference
    common SPI properties).
- MAINTAINERS:
  * Add a proper commit message to the patch.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250806-st7920-v1-0-64ab5a34f9a0@gmail.com
