[PATCH v2 0/7] vga_switcheroo, drm: Push fbcon handling into DRM clients

[Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de>]

Vga_switcheroo currently invokes fb_switch_outputs() to inform fbcon
about switching of the physical outputs among framebuffer devices. But
new DRM clients to not use fbdev/fbcon and might require their own
vga_switcheroo support. Let's strictly separate them from each other.

Remove fbdev/fbcon from vga_switcheroo. Introduce a pre_switch callback
for vga_switcheroo clients to do the fbcon update. Allows for removing
all direct interactions between vga_switcheroo and fbdev/fbcon.

There are only four drivers that support vga_switcheroo: amdgpu,
radeon, i915 and nouveau. Update each of them with the new callback.
When vga_switcheroo now invokes pre_switch, each DRM driver forwards
to aquire_outputs and lets the DRM clients handle the new outputs.

At the same time, push the fbcon update into DRM's client for fbdev
emulation. Do this with the new DRM client callback acquire_outputs,
so that other clients can have their own handling of vga_switcheroo.

Also replace the existing reprobe hook with post_switch for symetry.
For nouveau, this is merely a rename of the helper function. The other
drivers dor not implement reprobe.

Tested with radeon on a notebook with Radeon HD 4225 and HD 5430.

v2:
- implement all of pre_switch in a single commit to avoid possible
  deadlock in intermediate state (Sashiko)
- fix erroneous docs (Sashiko)

Thomas Zimmermann (7):
  drm/edid: Include <linux/fb.h>
  drm/client: Add acquire_outputs callback; implement for fbdev
    emulation
  vga_switcheroo: Add pre_switch callback to client ops
  vga_switcheroo: Add post_switch callback to client ops
  drm: Implement struct vga_switcheroo_client_ops.pre_switch
  drm: Implement vga_switcheroo_client_ops.post_switch
  vga-switcheroo: Remove unused interfaces
