Add a Video RAM manager for OMAP 2 and 3 platforms. VRAM manager is used
to allocate large continuous blocks of SDRAM or SRAM. The features VRAM
manager has that are missing from dma_alloc_* functions are:
- Support for OMAP2's SRAM
- Allocate without ioremapping
- Allocate at defined physical addresses
- Allows larger VRAM area and larger allocations
The upcoming DSS2 uses VRAM manager.
VRAM area size can be defined in kernel config, board file or with
kernel boot parameters. Board file definition overrides kernel config,
and boot parameter overrides kernel config and board file.

I would like to get rid of option CONFIG_FB_MATROX_MULTIHEAD and just
always enable it. There are many reasons for doing this:
* CONFIG_FB_MATROX_MULTIHEAD=y is what all x86 distributions do, so it
definitely works or we would know by now.
* Building the matroxfb driver with CONFIG_FB_MATROX_MULTIHEAD not set
results in the following build warning:
drivers/video/matrox/matroxfb_crtc2.c: In function 'matroxfb_dh_open':
drivers/video/matrox/matroxfb_crtc2.c:265: warning: the address of 'matroxfb_global_mxinfo' will always evaluate as 'true'
drivers/video/matrox/matroxfb_crtc2.c: In function 'matroxfb_dh_release':
drivers/video/matrox/matroxfb_crtc2.c:285: warning: the address of 'matroxfb_global_mxinfo' will always evaluate as 'true'
This is nothing to be worried about, the driver will work fine, but build
warnings are still annoying.
* The trick to get multihead support without CONFIG_FB_MATROX_MULTIHEAD,
which is described in the config help text, no longer works: you can't
load the same kernel module more than once.
* I fail to see how CONFIG_FB_MATROX_MULTIHEAD=y would make the code
significantly slower, contrary to what the help text says. A few extra
parameters on the stack here and there can't really slow things down in
comaprison to the rest of the code, and register access.
* The driver built without CONFIG_FB_MATROX_MULTIHEAD is larger than the
driver build with CONFIG_FB_MATROX_MULTIHEAD=y by 8%.
* One less configuration option makes things simpler. We add options
all the time, being able to remove one for once is nice. It improves
testing coverage. And I don't think the Matrox adapters are still
popular enough to warrant overdetailed configuration settings.
* We should be able to unobfuscate the driver code quite a bit after
this change (patches follow.)

Background:
Graphic devices are accessed through ranges in I/O or memory space. While most
modern devices allow relocation of such ranges, some "Legacy" VGA devices
implemented on PCI will typically have the same "hard-decoded" addresses as
they did on ISA. For more details see "PCI Bus Binding to IEEE Std 1275-1994
Standard for Boot (Initialization Configuration) Firmware Revision 2.1"
Section 7, Legacy Devices.
The Resource Access Control (RAC) module inside the X server currently does
the task of arbitration when more than one legacy device co-exists on the same
machine. But the problem happens when these devices are trying to be accessed
by different userspace clients (e.g. two server in parallel). Their address
assignments conflict. Therefore an arbitration scheme _outside_ of the X
server is needed to control the sharing of these resources. This document
introduces the operation of the VGA arbiter implemented for Linux kernel.

A tridentfb driver has all the functionality of the cyblafb driver without
the bugs of the latter.
Changes to the tridentfb driver:
- FBINFO_READS_FAST added to the tridentfb. The cyblafb used a blitter
for scrolling which is faster than color expansion on Cyberblade
chipsets. The blitter is slower on a discrete Blade3D core. Use the
blitter for scrolling in the tridentfb only for integrated Blade3D
cores. Now, scrolling speed is about equal for the tridentfb and the
cyblafb.
- a copyright notice addition is done on request of Jani Monoses (the
first author of the tridentfb).

Submenus of the graphics support "Support for frame buffer devices" and

The DRM subsection is broken because one option is put outside the choice

The frame buffers part is broken then due to circular dependency. Fix
this by make Intel frame buffers depend on CONFIG_INTEL_AGP.

Migration helper.
The i915 driver recently added a 'depends on FB' rule to its
Kconfig entry - which silently turns off DRM_I915 if someone
has a working config but no CONFIG_FB selected, and upgrades
to the latest upstream kernel.
Norbert Preining reported this problem:
Bug-Entry : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12599
Subject : dri /dev node disappeared with 2.6.29-rc1
So change it to "select FB", which auto-selects framebuffer
support. This way the driver keeps working, regardless of
whether FB was enabled before or not.
Kconfig select's of interactive options can be problematic to
dependencies and can cause build breakages - but in this case
it's safe because it's a leaf entry with no dependencies of its
own.
( There is some minor circular dependency fallout as FB_I810
and FB_INTEL also used 'depends on FB' constructs - update
those to "select FB" too. )

PXA27x and later processors support overlay1 and overlay2 on-top of the
base framebuffer (although under-neath the base is also possible). They
support palette and no-palette RGB formats, as well as YUV formats (only
available on overlay2). These overlays have dedicated DMA channels and
behave in a similar way as a framebuffer.
This heavily simplified and re-structured work is based on the original
pxafb_overlay.c (which is pending for mainline merge for a long time).
The major problems with this pxafb_overlay.c are (if you are interested
in the history):
1. heavily redundant (the control logics for overlay1 and overlay2 are
actually identical except for some small operations, which are now
abstracted into a 'pxafb_layer_ops' structure)
2. a lot of useless and un-tested code (two workarounds which are now
fixed on mature silicons)
3. cursorfb is actually useless, hardware cursor should not be used
this way, and the code was actually un-tested for a long time.
The code in this patch should be self-explanatory, I tried to add minimum
comments. As said, this is basically simplified, there are several things
still on the pending list:
1. palette mode is un-supported and un-tested (although re-using the
palette code of the base framebuffer is actually very easy now with
previous clean-up patches)
2. fb_pan_display for overlay(s) is un-supported
3. the base framebuffer can actually be abstracted by 'pxafb_layer' as
well, which will help further re-use of the code and keep a better
and consistent structure. (This is the reason I named it 'pxafb_layer'
instead of 'pxafb_overlay' or something alike)
