[PATCH 00/28] drm: Remove DRM aperture helpers

DRM's aperture helpers are merely wrappers around the respective
helpers in drivers/video/. The DRM interface existed first, but was
later generalized for use with fbdev and a few other graphics-related
places in the kernel. It is time to remove the DRM wrappers and call
the video helpers directly.

No functional changes intended. This series should replace one interface
with another. Individual patches could go into the various trees and the
DRM wrappers can be removed when all driver changes have been merged.
