[PATCH 0/7] Add drm_fb_helper_fbdev_setup/teardown()

Hi,

This is a new attempt at simplifying fbdev setup/teardown in drivers.
Hopefully this one is better than my previous attempt. The previous
version allocated the drm_fb_helper struct as well, this time I leave it
to the driver.

I've included an fbdev deferred I/O setup helper as well since it's part
of the teardown.

As always I struggle with documentation so I welcome all help in getting
the words right.

Noralf.
