Zhao Yakui 5c61259e6c drm/mode: get the modeline for standard timing in EDID by using CVT/GTF
Create the standard timing modeline by using CVT/GFT algorithm while
interpreting the EDID.

In course of interpreting the EDID, the timing level will be obtained,
which is used to determine whether the CVT/GTF algorithm is selected to
generate the modeline for the given hdisplay/vdisplay/vrefresh_rate.
In the UMS mode firstly it will check whether it can be found in
the DMT table. If it can be found, then the modeline is returned. Then the
timing_level is used to choose CVT/GTF.
As there is no DMT table, no modeline is returned when timing level
is DMT. For the other two timing levels, the CVT/GTF will be called to
generate the required standard timing modeline.

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.


Documentation on the DRI is available from:
    http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Documentation
