[PATCH v2 1/2] drm: Introduce crtc->mode_valid() callback

Jose Abreu Jose.Abreu at synopsys.com

Some crtc's may have restrictions in the mode they can display. In
this patch a new callback (crtc->mode_valid()) is introduced that
is called at the same stage of connector->mode_valid() callback.

This shall be implemented if the crtc has some sort of restriction
so that we don't probe modes that will fail in the commit() stage.
For example: A given crtc may be responsible to set a clock value.
If the clock can not produce all the values for the available
modes then this callback can be used to restrict the number of
probbed modes to only the ones that can be displayed.

If the crtc does not implement the callback then the behaviour will
remain the same. Also, for a given set of crtcs that can be bound to
the connector, if at least one can display the mode then the mode
will be probbed.

Changes v1->v2:
	- Correct indentation
	- Change function name to drm_validate_connector
	- Move connnector->mode_valid() to new function
	- Change crtc->mode_valid() "mode" field to const
	- Code reogarnization
	- Return earlier if crtc accepts mode
