[PATCH 04/11] drm: document drm_ioctl.[hc]

Also unify/merge with the existing stuff.
I was a bit torn where to put this, but in the end I decided to put
all the ioctl/sysfs/debugfs stuff into drm-uapi.rst. That means we
have a bit a split with the other uapi related stuff used internally,
like drm_file.[hc], but I think overall this makes more sense.
If it's too confusing we can always add more cross-links to make it
more discoverable. But the auto-sprinkling of links kernel-doc already
does seems sufficient.
Also for prettier docs and more cross-links, switch the internal
defines over to an enum, as usual.
v2: Update kerneldoc fro drm_compat_ioctl too (caught by 0day), plus a
bit more drive-by polish.
v3: Fix typo, spotted by xerpi on irc (Sergi).

- Driver-specific ioctls descriptors table.
-
-Driver-specific ioctls numbers start at DRM_COMMAND_BASE. The ioctls
-descriptors table is indexed by the ioctl number offset from the base
-value. Drivers can use the DRM_IOCTL_DEF_DRV() macro to initialize
-the table entries.
-
-::
-
- DRM_IOCTL_DEF_DRV(ioctl, func, flags)
-
-``ioctl`` is the ioctl name. Drivers must define the DRM_##ioctl and
-DRM_IOCTL_##ioctl macros to the ioctl number offset from
-DRM_COMMAND_BASE and the ioctl number respectively. The first macro is
-private to the device while the second must be exposed to userspace in a
-public header.
-
-``func`` is a pointer to the ioctl handler function compatible with the
-``drm_ioctl_t`` type.
-
-::
-
- typedef int drm_ioctl_t(struct drm_device *dev, void *data,
- struct drm_file *file_priv);
-
-``flags`` is a bitmask combination of the following values. It restricts
-how the ioctl is allowed to be called.
-
-- DRM_AUTH - Only authenticated callers allowed
-
-- DRM_MASTER - The ioctl can only be called on the master file handle
-
-- DRM_ROOT_ONLY - Only callers with the SYSADMIN capability allowed
-
-- DRM_CONTROL_ALLOW - The ioctl can only be called on a control
- device
-
-- DRM_UNLOCKED - The ioctl handler will be called without locking the
- DRM global mutex. This is the enforced default for kms drivers (i.e.
- using the DRIVER_MODESET flag) and hence shouldn't be used any more
- for new drivers.

+ * which define IOCTL for use by the display DRM master, but they all predate

+ *
+ * Now if you do have a render driver you always have to support it through

+ *
+ * First you need to define the structure for your IOCTL in your driver private
+ * UAPI header in ``include/uapi/drm/my_driver_drm.h``::
+ *
+ * struct my_driver_operation {
+ * u32 some_thing;
+ * u32 another_thing;
+ * };
+ *
+ * Please make sure that you follow all the best practices from
+ * ``Documentation/ioctl/botching-up-ioctls.txt``. Note that drm_ioctl()
+ * automatically zero-extends structures, hence make sure you can add more stuff
+ * at the end, i.e. don't put a variable sized array there.
+ *
+ * Then you need to define your IOCTL number, using one of DRM_IO(), DRM_IOR(),
+ * DRM_IOW() or DRM_IOWR(). It must start with the DRM_IOCTL\_ prefix::
+ *
+ * ##define DRM_IOCTL_MY_DRIVER_OPERATION \
+ * DRM_IOW(DRM_COMMAND_BASE, struct my_driver_operation)
+ *
+ * DRM driver private IOCTL must be in the range from DRM_COMMAND_BASE to
+ * DRM_COMMAND_END. Finally you need an array of &struct drm_ioctl_desc to wire
+ * up the handlers and set the access rights:
+ *
+ * static const struct drm_ioctl_desc my_driver_ioctls[] = {
+ * DRM_IOCTL_DEF_DRV(MY_DRIVER_OPERATION, my_driver_operation,
+ * DRM_AUTH|DRM_RENDER_ALLOW),

+ *
+ * And then assign this to the &drm_driver.ioctls field in your driver
+ * structure.
