Driver implementations of the drm_crtc's .page_flip() function are
required to update the crtc->fb field on success to reflect that the new
framebuffer is now in use. This is important to keep reference counting
on the framebuffers balanced.
While at it, document this requirement to keep others from falling into
the same trap.

Now that the fbdev helper interface for drivers is trimmed down,
update the kerneldoc for all the remaining exported functions.
I've tried to beat the DocBook a bit by reordering the function
references a bit into a more sensible ordering. But that didn't work
out at all. Hence just extend the in-code DOC: section a bit.
Also remove the LOCKING: sections - especially for the setup functions
they're totally bogus. But that's not a documentation problem, but
simply an artifact of the current rather hazardous locking around drm
init and even more so around fbdev setup ...
v2: Some further improvements:
- Also add documentation for drm_fb_helper_single_add_all_connectors,
Dave Airlie didn't want me to kill this one from the fb helper
interface.
- Update docs for drm_fb_helper_fill_var/fix - they should be used
from the driver's ->fb_probe callback to setup the fbdev info
structure.
- Clarify what the ->fb_probe callback should all do - it needs to
setup both the fbdev info and allocate the drm framebuffer used as
backing storage.
- Add basic documentaation for the drm_fb_helper_funcs driver callback
vfunc.
v3: Implement clarifications Laurent Pinchart suggested in his review.
v4: Fix another mispelling Laurent spotted.

Instead of reimplementing all of the dma_buf functionality in every driver,
create helpers drm_prime_import and drm_prime_export that implement them in
terms of new, lower-level hook functions:
gem_prime_pin: callback when a buffer is created, used to pin buffers into GTT
gem_prime_get_sg_table: convert a drm_gem_object to an sg_table for export
gem_prime_import_sg_table: convert an sg_table into a drm_gem_object
gem_prime_vmap, gem_prime_vunmap: map and unmap an object
These hooks are optional; drivers can opt in by using drm_gem_prime_import and
drm_gem_prime_export as the .gem_prime_import and .gem_prime_export fields of
struct drm_driver.
v2:
- Drop .begin_cpu_access. None of the drivers this code replaces implemented
it. Having it here was a leftover from when I was trying to include i915 in
this rework.
- Use mutex_lock instead of mutex_lock_interruptible, as these three drivers
did. This patch series shouldn't change that behavior.
- Rename helpers to gem_prime_get_sg_table and gem_prime_import_sg_table.
Rename struct sg_table* variables to 'sgt' for clarity.
- Update drm.tmpl for these new hooks.
v3:
- Pass the vaddr down to the driver. This lets drivers that just call vunmap on
the pointer avoid having to store the pointer in their GEM private structures.
- Move documentation into a /** DOC */ comment in drm_prime.c and include it in
drm.tmpl with a !P line. I tried to use !F lines to include documentation of
the individual functions from drmP.h, but the docproc / kernel-doc scripts
barf on that file, so hopefully this is good enough for now.
- apply refcount fix from commit be8a42ae60

Now that framebuffer are reference-counted for all use-sites, update
the documentation accordingly to stress the new rules for
initialization and teardown.
Also add a short paragraph about the implications for drivers of the
new locking rules.

A helper that drivers can use to send vblank event after a pageflip.
If the driver doesn't support proper vblank irq based time/seqn then
just pass -1 for the pipe # to get do_gettimestamp() behavior (since
there are a lot of drivers that don't use drm_vblank_count_and_time())
Also an internal send_vblank_event() helper for the various other code
paths within drm_irq that also need to send vblank events.
v1: original
v2: add back 'vblwait->reply.sequence = seq' which should not have
been deleted
v3: add WARN_ON() in case lock is not held and comments
v4: use WARN_ON_SMP() instead to fix issue with !SMP && !DEBUG_SPINLOCK
as pointed out by Marcin Slusarz
v5: update docbook

From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
So-called \So"-called`\, a.
So named; called by such a name (but perhaps called thus with
doubtful propriety).
From WordNet (r) 2.0 [wn]:
so-called
adj : doubtful or suspect; "these so-called experts are no help"
[syn: {alleged(a)}, {supposed}]
My strong conviction is that widespread use of 'so gennant'
or 'sogennant' in German has led to the creeping misuse of
'so-called' in English (especially through technical writings).
In English, it would be better to use:
what is called
or a better translation of 'so gennant':
so named
