[PATCH] omapdrm: Make fixed resolution panels work

The omapdrm driver requires omapdss panel drivers to expose ops like detect,
set_timings and check_timings. These can be NULL for fixed panel DPI, DBI, DSI
and SDI drivers. At some places, there are no checks to see if the panel driver
has these ops or not, and that leads to a crash.

The following things are done to make fixed panels work:

- The omap_connector's detect function is modified such that it considers panel
  types which are generally fixed panels as always connected(provided the panel
  driver doesn't have a detect op). Hence, the connector corresponding to these
  panels is always in a 'connected' state.

- If a panel driver doesn't have a check_timings op, assume that it supports the
  mode passed to omap_connector_mode_valid(the 'mode_valid' drm helper function)

- The function omap_encoder_update shouldn't really do anything for fixed
  resolution panels, make sure that it calls set_timings only if the panel
  driver has one.

I tested this with picodlp on a OMAP4 sdp board. I couldn't get any other
working boards with fixed DPI panels. I could try the DSI video mode panel
on an OMAP5 sevm, but that will require me to patch a lot of things to get
omap5 dss work with DT. I can try if needed.
