Yeah if more drivers grow a ->dirty callback that does something we'd
probably want to pull all that code out of qxl/udl into core fbdev. i915
now also has a dirty callback, but for fbcon we're going with a slightly
different options: Since all our frontbuffer dirtying are for optional
features we just disable them right now.

Anyway just an idea for future patches when someone works in this area.
For now I think we simply have to select the relevant options if FBDEV
emulation is enabled.

I.e.
	select FB_DEFERRED_IO if DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION

and using CONFIG_DMR_FBDEV_EMULATION here instead. Same for udl changes.
