[PATCH v11 0/4] Panel rotation patches

[Dmitry Osipenko]

Hello!

This series adds support for display panel's DT rotation property. It's a
continuation of the work that was initially started by Derek Basehore for
the panel driver that is used by some Mediatek device [1]. I picked up the
Derek's patches and added my t-b and r-b tags to them, I also added
rotation support to the panel-lvds and panel-simple drivers.

We need the rotation support for the Nexus 7 tablet device which is pending
to become supported by upstream kernel, the device has display panel mounted
upside-down and it uses panel-lvds [2].

Changelog:

v11: - This series is factored out from this patchset [3] because these
       patches do not have hard dependency on the Tegra DRM patches and
       it should be nicer to review and apply the properly grouped patches.

     - Initially [3] only touched the panel-lvds driver and Emil Velikov
       suggested that it will be better to support more panels in the review
       comments to [3]. So I included the Derek's patch for the BOE panel
       and added rotation support to the panel-simple driver. I tested that
       panel-lvds and panel-simple work properly with the rotated panel using
       the Opentegra Xorg driver [4] and Wayland Weston [5].

     - The panel-lvds driver now prints a error message if rotation property
       fails to be parsed.
