Use dma_alloc_attrs to allocate memory instead of omap specific vram
allocator. After this we can remove the omap vram allocator.
There are some downsides to this change:
1) dma_alloc_attrs doesn't let us allocate at certain physical address.
However, this should not be a problem as this feature of vram allocator
is only used when reserving the framebuffer that was initialized by the
bootloader, and we don't currently support "passing" a framebuffer from
the bootloader to the kernel anyway.
2) dma_alloc_attrs, as of now, always ioremaps the allocated area, and
we don't need the ioremap when using VRFB. This patch uses
DMA_ATTR_NO_KERNEL_MAPPING for the allocation, but the flag is currently
not operational.
3) OMAPFB_GET_VRAM_INFO ioctl cannot return real values anymore. I
changed the ioctl to return 64M for all the values, which, I hope, the
applications will interpret as "there's enough vram".
4) "vram" kernel parameter to define how much ram to reserve for video
use no longer works. The user needs to enable CMA and use "cma"
parameter.

A DRM display driver for TI OMAP platform. Similar to omapfb (fbdev)
and omap_vout (v4l2 display) drivers in the past, this driver uses the
DSS2 driver to access the display hardware, including support for
HDMI, DVI, and various types of LCD panels. And it implements GEM
support for buffer allocation (for KMS as well as offscreen buffers
used by the xf86-video-omap userspace xorg driver).
The driver maps CRTCs to overlays, encoders to overlay-managers, and
connectors to dssdev's. Note that this arrangement might change slightly
when support for drm_plane overlays is added.
For GEM support, non-scanout buffers are using the shmem backed pages
provided by GEM core (In drm_gem_object_init()). In the case of scanout
buffers, which need to be physically contiguous, those are allocated
with CMA and use drm_gem_private_object_init().

v2: http://patches.linaro.org/4156/
v3: http://patches.linaro.org/4688/
v4: http://patches.linaro.org/4791/
History:
v5: move headers from include/drm at Greg KH's request, minor rebasing
on 3.2-rc1, pull in private copies of drm_gem_{get,put}_pages()
because "drm/gem: add functions to get/put pages" patch is not
merged yet
v4: bit of rework of encoder/connector _dpms() code, modeset_init()
rework to not use nested functions, update TODO.txt
v3: minor cleanups, improved error handling for dev_load(), some minor
API changes that will be needed later for tiled buffer support
v2: replace omap_vram with CMA for scanout buffer allocation, remove
unneeded functions, use dma_addr_t for physical addresses, error
handling cleanup, refactor attach/detach pages into common drm
functions, split non-userspace-facing API into omap_priv.h, remove
plugin API
v1: original

DSS driver has not been "experimental" for many years now, so perhaps
it's time to remove the text from Kconfig titles.

Remove the option for forcing auto-update. Auto-update for manual update
displays is no more a DSS feature, so if a particular display devices does
have auto-update mode, it should be in display's custom settings.
