[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Attach a fb to the load-detect pipe

We need to ensure that we feed valid memory into the display plane
attached to the pipe when switching the pipe on. Otherwise, the display
engine may read through an invalid PTE and so throw an PGTBL_ER
exception.

As we need to perform load detection before even the first object is
allocated for the fbdev, there is no pre-existing object large enough
for us to borrow to use as the framebuffer. So we need to create one
and cleanup afterwards.

Found by assert_fb_bound_for_plane().

I've only compile tested this so far. I manage to break my grub
installation on the only 915GM I have (and the debian installer doesn't),
so I haven't been able to test this yet.

We can refactor half of intel_framebuffer_create_for_mode and share the
kzalloc+init with intel_user_framebuffer_create.

But I think this is close.
