There's now a pointer to struct drm_vram_mm stored in struct drm_device.
DRM drivers that use VRAM MM should use this field to refer to their
instance of the data structure. Appropriate helpers are now provided as
well.
Adding struct drm_vram_mm to struct drm_device further avoids wrappers
and boilerplate code in drivers. This patch implements default functions
for callbacks in struct drm_driver and struct file_operations that use
the struct drm_vram_mm stored in struct drm_device. Drivers that need to
provide their own implementations can still do so.
The patch also adds documentation for the VRAM helper library in general.
v5:
* set .llseek to no_llseek() from DRM_VRAM_MM_FILE_OPERATIONS
v4:
* cleanups from checkpatch.pl
* document VRAM helper library

The VRAM MM memory manager is a helper library that manages dedicated video
memory of simple framebuffer devices. It is supported to be used with
struct drm_gem_vram_object, but does not depend on it.
The implementation is based on the respective code from ast, bochs, and
mgag200. These drivers share the exact same implementation except for type
names. The helpers are currently build with TTM. This may change in future
revisions.
v4:
* cleanups from checkpatch.pl
v2:
* renamed to struct drm_vram_mm
* add drm_vram_mm_mmap() helper
* documentation fixes
