Hi All,

This is a resend of v2 of my panel-orientation drm connector property
series. I already send this out 2 weeks ago from my Red Hat email, but
that does not get picked up by the drm subsys scripts to run tests, so
hence this resend from my gmail.

The 2 biggest changes in v2 are:

1) Add support to drm-fb-helper.c for the panel-orientation prop and
make it apply the rotation to the fb to get fbcon to show the right way up.

2) Change the patch to enable the panel-orientation prop in the i915 driver
to read back to rotation setup by the BIOS from the hardware (the VBT
has a panel rotation field for this, but it reads 0 on hardware where
the GOP does correctly rotate the screen, so its useless).

Regards,

Hans
