[RFC, drm-misc-next v4 4/9] drm/amdgpu: Implement .be_primary() callback

From: Sui Jingfeng <suijingfeng at loongson.cn>

On a machine with multiple GPUs, a Linux user has no control over which one
is primary at boot time. This patch tries to solve the mentioned problem by
implementing the .be_primary() callback. Pass amdgpu.modeset=10 on the
kernel cmd line if you really want the device bound by amdgpu drm driver to
be the primary video adapter, no matter what VGAARB say.
