In current vblank-wait implementation, if we turn off VGA output,
drm_wait_vblank will still wait on the disabled pipe until timeout,
because vblank on the pipe is assumed be enabled. This would cause
slow system response on some system such as moblin.
This patch resolve the issue by adding a drm helper function
drm_vblank_off which explicitly clear vblank_enabled[crtc], wake up
any waiting queue and save last vblank counter before turning off
crtc. It also slightly change drm_vblank_get to ensure that we will
will return immediately if trying to wait on a disabled pipe.

This patch adds a new flag to the drmWaitVblank ioctl, which asks the drm
to return immediately and notify userspace when the specified vblank sequence
happens by sending an event back on the drm fd.
The event mechanism works with the other flags supported by the ioctls,
specifically, the vblank sequence can be specified relatively or absolutely,
and works for primary and seconday crtc.
The signal field of the vblank request is used to provide user data,
which will be sent back to user space in the vblank event.

VGA arb requires DRM support for non-kms drivers, to turn on/off
irqs when disabling the mem/io regions.
VGA arb requires KMS support for GPUs where we can turn off VGA
decoding. Currently we know how to do this for intel and radeon
kms drivers, which allows them to be removed from the arbiter.
This patch comes from Fedora rawhide kernel.

allocating devname in the i915 driver was a hack originally and I
forgot to figure out how to do this properly back then.
So this is the cleaner version that just picks devname or driver name
in the irq code.
It removes the devname allocs from the i915 driver.

The first time we install a mode, the vblank will be disabled for a pipe
and so drm_vblank_get() in drm_vblank_pre_modeset() will fail. As we
unconditionally call drm_vblank_put() afterwards, the vblank reference
counter becomes unbalanced.

In dc1336ff4f (set vblank enable flag correctly
across IRQ uninstall), we made sure drivers that uninstall their interrupt
handler set the vblank enabled flag correctly, so that when interrupts are
re-enabled, vblank interrupts & counts work as expected. However I missed the
last_vblank field: it needs to be updated as well, otherwise, at the next
drm_update_vblank_count we'll end up comparing a current count to a stale
one (the last one captured by the disable function), which may trigger the
wraparound handling, leading to a jumpy counter and hangs in drm_wait_vblank.
The jumpy counter can prevent the DRM_WAIT_ON from returning success if the
difference between the current count and the requested count is greater than
2^23, leading to timeouts or hangs, if the ioctl is restarted in a loop (as
is the case in libdrm < 2.4.4).

In the absence of kernel mode setting, many drivers disable IRQs across VT
switch. The core DRM vblank code is missing a check for this case however;
even after IRQ disable, the vblank code will still have the vblank_enabled
flag set, so unless we track the fact that they're disabled at IRQ uninstall
time, when we VT switch back in we won't actually re-enable them, which means
any apps waiting on vblank before the switch will hang.
This patch does that and also adds a sanity check to the wait condition to
look for the irq_enabled flag in general, as well as adding a wakeup to the
IRQ uninstall path.
Fixes fdo bug #18879 with compiz hangs at VT switch.

Add mode setting support to the DRM layer.
This is a fairly big chunk of work that allows DRM drivers to provide
full output control and configuration capabilities to userspace. It was
motivated by several factors:
- the fb layer's APIs aren't suited for anything but simple
configurations
- coordination between the fb layer, DRM layer, and various userspace
drivers is poor to non-existent (radeonfb excepted)
- user level mode setting drivers makes displaying panic & oops
messages more difficult
- suspend/resume of graphics state is possible in many more
configurations with kernel level support
This commit just adds the core DRM part of the mode setting APIs.
Driver specific commits using these new structure and APIs will follow.

Previously, drivers supporting vblank interrupt waits would run the interrupt
all the time, or all the time that any 3d client was running, preventing the
CPU from sleeping for long when the system was otherwise idle. Now, interrupts
are disabled any time that no client is waiting on a vblank event. The new
method uses vblank counters on the chipsets when the interrupts are turned
off, rather than counting interrupts, so that we can continue to present
accurate vblank numbers.

Previous attempts at interrupt mitigation had been foiled by i915_wait_irq's
failure to update the sarea seqno value when the status page indicated that
the seqno had already been passed. MSI support has been seen to cut CPU
costs by up to 40% in some workloads by avoiding other expensive interrupt

With the coming of kernel based modesetting and the memory manager stuff,
the everything in one directory approach was getting very ugly and
starting to be unmanageable.
This restructures the drm along the lines of other kernel components.
It creates a drivers/gpu/drm directory and moves the hw drivers into
subdirectores. It moves the includes into an include/drm, and
sets up the unifdef for the userspace headers we should be exporting.
