[PATCH 0/8] drm: Add fbdev deferred io support to helpers

[Noralf Trønnes]

This patchset adds fbdev deferred io support to drm_fb_helper and
drm_fb_cma_helper.

It defers fbdev mmap and fb_{write,fillrect,copyarea,imageblit} damage and
channels it through the (struct drm_framebuffer_funcs)->dirty callback on
the fb_helper framebuffer which will always run in process context.

I have also added patches that converts qxl and udl to use this
deferred io support. I have only compile tested it, no functional testing.
I know that qxl is purely a software thing so I could actually test it, but
I have never used qemu so I'm not keen on spending a lot of time on that.

This was originally part of the tinydrm patchset.

Changes since RFC:
- Fix drm_clip_rect use to be exclusive on x2/y2
- Put drm_clip_rect functions in drm_rect.{h,c}
- Take into account that (struct fb_ops *)->fb_{write,...}() can be called
  from atomic context (spin_lock_irqsave)
- Export fb_deferred_io_mmap()
- Add some more documentation
- Add qxl and udl patches
