drm/tegra: Changes for v3.16-rc1
The majority of these changes are a slew of cleanups across the board.
A more noteworthy change is the addition of drm_dev_set_unique() and the
conversion of the Tegra DRM driver to use it. This allows us to get rid
of the host1x drm_bus implementation. Other USB and platform drivers can
be changed in a similar way. Unfortunately for most PCI devices there is
some userspace that relies on the old functionality and cannot be as
easily converted.
HDMI and hardware cursor support is added for Tegra124. The SOR output
gains support for exposing CRCs via debugfs, which can be used for
automated testing. Many values that were hardcoded in the SOR/eDP code
are now computed at runtime to increase compatibility with more devices.
