[PATCH v5 1/4] drm: Introduce device wedged event

Introduce device wedged event, which will notify userspace of wedged
(hanged/unusable) state of the DRM device through a uevent. This is
useful especially in cases where the device is no longer operating as
expected and has become unrecoverable from driver context.

Purpose of this implementation is to provide drivers a way to recover
through userspace intervention. Different drivers may have different
ideas of a "wedged device" depending on their hardware implementation,
and hence the vendor agnostic nature of the event. It is upto the drivers
to decide when they see the need for recovery and how they want to recover
from the available methods.

Current implementation defines three recovery methods, out of which,
drivers can choose to support any one or multiple of them. Preferred
recovery method will be sent in the uevent environment as WEDGED=<method>.
Userspace consumers (sysadmin) can define udev rules to parse this event
and take respective action to recover the device.

 Method    | Consumer expectations
-----------|-----------------------------------
 rebind    | unbind + rebind driver
 bus-reset | unbind + reset bus device + rebind
 reboot    | reboot system

v4: s/drm_dev_wedged/drm_dev_wedged_event
    Use drm_info() (Jani)
    Kernel doc adjustment (Aravind)
v5: Send recovery method with uevent (Lina)
