My aim is to move/restructure everything shared by omapfb and omapdss so
that they would be fully independent. But at the moment we've got
structs used between arch/, omapfb and omapdrm, so there are some
challenges there.

include/video/omapdss.h was needed as a public omapdss header as we had
multiple users for omapdss. Now on the omapdrm side we no longer need a
public header at all, so in theory all that we need in omapdss.h (from
omapdrm's perspective) are the parts used from arch/.

But, of course, as omapfb and omap_vout still need support from
omapdss.h, I can't remove them just like that.

Probably I should create a new header for omapfb. Or maybe a new one for
the parts used from arch/.
