We wish to control certain driver_features flags on a per-device basis
while still sharing a single drm_driver instance across all the
devices. To that end introduce device.driver_features. By default
it will be set to ~0 to not impose any limits beyond
driver.driver_features. Drivers can then clear specific flags
in the per-device bitmask to limit the capabilities of the device.
An alternative approach would be to copy the driver_features from
the driver into the device in drm_dev_init(), however that would
require verifying that no driver is currently changing
driver.driver_features after drm_dev_init(). Hence the ~0 apporach
was easier.
Ideally we'd also make drm_driver const but there is plenty of code
left that wants to mutate it (eg. various vfunc assignments). We'll
need to fix all that up before we can make it const.
And while at it fix up the type of the feature flag passed to
drm_core_check_feature().
v2: Streamline the && vs. & (Chris)
s/int/u32/ in drm_core_check_feature() args

This the beginning of an API for in-kernel clients.
First out is a way to get a framebuffer backed by a dumb buffer.
Only GEM drivers are supported.
The original idea of using an exported dma-buf was dropped because it
also creates an anonomous file descriptor which doesn't work when the
buffer is created from a kernel thread. The easy way out is to use
drm_driver.gem_prime_vmap to get the virtual address, which requires a
GEM object. This excludes the vmwgfx driver which is the only non-GEM
driver apart from the legacy ones. A solution for vmwgfx will have to be
worked out later if it wants to support the client API which it probably
will when we have a bootsplash client.

With the ioctl and driver prep done, we can remove everything else.

Use srcu to protect drm_device.unplugged in a race free manner.
Drivers can use drm_dev_enter()/drm_dev_exit() to protect and mark
sections preventing access to device resources that are not available
after the device is gone.

drm_fb_helper is *the* way of doing fbdev emulation so add a pointer to
struct drm_device. This makes it possible to add callback helpers for
.last_close and .output_poll_changed further reducing fbdev emulation
footprint in drivers. The pointer is set by drm_fb_helper_init() and
cleared by drm_fb_helper_fini().
