Daniel Vetter 7147573a5c drm/gma500: move fbcon restore to lastclose
Doing this within the fb->destroy callback leads to a locking
nightmare. And all other drm drivers that restore the fbcon do
it in lastclose, too.

With this adjustments all fb->destroy callbacks optionally drop
references to any gem objects used as backing storage, call
drm_framebuffer_cleanup and then kfree the struct. Which nicely
simplifies the locking for framebuffer unreferencing and freeing,
since this doesn't require that we hold the mode_config lock. A
slight exception is the vmwgfx surface backed framebuffer, it also
calls drm_master_put and removes the object from a device-private
framebuffer list. Both seem to have solid locking in place already.

Conclusion is that now it is no longer required to hold the
mode_config lock while freeing a framebuffer.

v2: Drop the corresponding mutex_lock WARN check from
drm_framebuffer_unreference.

v3: Use just the mode_config lock not modeset_lock_all, due to patch
reordering.

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:
