This patch add a config to support to create multi buffer for cma fbdev. Such as
double buffer and triple buffer.

Cma fbdev is convient to add a legency fbdev. And still many Android devices use
fbdev now and at least double buffer is needed for these Android devices, so
that a buffer flip can be operated. It will need some time for Android device
vendors to abondon legency fbdev. So multi buffer for fbdev is needed.
