mainlining shenanigans
dc5b961410
When the DRM driver for the meson platform was created, the bindings required that the DMC register region was provided. Through those DMC registers, the display driver could configure an IP called "canvas", a video lookup table used by the display IP. It was later discovered that "canvas" is actually an IP shared by other components than display: video decoder, 2D engine.. and that it wasn't possible to keep the canvas code in DRM. Over the past few months, incremental efforts have been deployed to create a standalone meson-canvas driver [1], and the DRM driver was patched to optionally use it if present [2]. This is the final step of those efforts where we simply remove any control over DMC that the meson DRM driver has. Please note that this breaks compatibility with older DTs that only provide the DMC register range but not the amlogic,canvas node.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
