Well I'd like the property to be in some generic place so that fbcon can
unroate and that with the atomic stuff we can have rotation support in the
core structures. Which should help with argument checking.

But for rotation I don't think we should set it up in generic code, but in
i915. So the place where we keep it would be generic, the values would be
the sames, but the allowed set would differ depending upon platform or
driver.
