[PATCH v3 0/2] drm/vboxvideo: Use struct drm_shadow_plane_state for cursor plane

Functions in the atomic commit tail are not allowed to acquire the
dmabuf's reservation lock. So we cannot legally call the GEM object's
vmap functionality in atomic_update.

But, much better, we can use drm_shadow_plane_state to do all the mapping
for us. Patch 1 exports the helpers for shadow-buffered planes from the
DRM KMS helper library and adds documentation on how to use them. Patch 2
replaces the vmap code in vbox' cursor update code with a the helpers for
shadow-buffered planes.

v3:
	* documentation fixes (Daniel)
v2:
	* rebuilt with shadow-buffered planes

Thomas Zimmermann (2):
  drm/gem: Export helpers for shadow-buffered planes
  drm/vboxvideo: Implement cursor plane with struct
    drm_shadow_plane_state
