[PATCH 1/2] drm/fb_helper: check whether fbcon is bound

[Daniel Vetter]

We need to make sure that the fbcon is still bound when touching the
hw, since otherwise we might corrupt the modeset state of kms clients.
X mostly works around that with VT switching and setting the VT into
raw mode, which disables most fbcon events.

Raw kms test programs though don't do that dance, and in the future
we might want to aim to abolish CONFIG_VT anyway. So improve preventive
measures a bit. To do so, extract the existing logic for handling hotplug
events (which X can't block with the current set of tricks) and reuse
it for the fbdev blanking helper.

Long-term we really need to either scrap this all and only have a OOPS
console, or come up with a saner model for device ownership sharing
between fbdev/fbcon and kms userspace.

And for those wondering whether this check can't be added to fb_set_par e.g. to
prevent undue panning - drm initialization locking is too screwed up for that to
work out, I'm sorry :(
