Convert hibmc's memory management from gem-vram ot gem-shmem. Fix a
number of bugs in preparation.
Patches 1 to 3 fix various bugs in the plane code.
Patch 4 replaces gem-vram with gem-shmem. The rational is that gem-vram
has corner cases on low-end devices and is limited in functionality. The
commit messages state a list of possible issues.
Switching to gem-shmem avoids these problems. It also enables buffer
sharing via dma_buf, which improves the hibmc driver's integration with
the overall graphics ecosystem.
We've done these changes on drivers for similar hardware, such as ast and
mgag200. Hibmc is the last of these drivers to run on gem-shmem. Gem-vram
instead is deprecated and can hopefully be removed in a later release.
Tested on an RH1288 v3 system.
v3:
- fix coding style
- rebase on display-detection fixes
v2:
- extend commit message of patch 2 (Yongbang)
- so not select TTM any longer
Thomas Zimmermann (4):
drm/hibmc: Use drm_atomic_helper_check_plane_state()

drm/hibmc: Do not use cpp from struct drm_format_info
drm/hibmc: Use gem-shmem with shadow-plane helpers for memory
management
