mainlining shenanigans

The display architecture has changed in several signifcant ways with the new Tegra186 SoC. Display controllers are a completely different design, but have been given a frontend that simulates the register interface for earlier chips. Unfortunately the frontend isn't completely backwards compatible, so the driver needs parameterization to take the changes into account. One big change is that the total number of display controllers has been increased to three. At the same time the number of planes available has remained constant. However, planes can now be freely assigned between the display controllers, giving applications more flexibility in making the best use of the available resources.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
