[note this requires an fb patch posted to linux-fbdev-devel already]
This uses the normal video= command line option to control the kms
output setup at boot time. It is used to override the autodetection
done by kms.
video= normally takes a framebuffer as the first parameter, in kms
it will take a connector name, DVI-I-1, or LVDS-1 etc. If no output
connector is specified the mode string will apply to all connectors.
The mode specification used will match down the probed modes, and if
no mode is found it will add a CVT mode that matches.
video=1024x768 - all connectors match a 1024x768 mode or add a CVT on
video=VGA-1:1024x768, VGA-1 connector gets mode only.
The same strings as used in current fb modedb.c are used, except I've
added three more letters, e, D, d, e = enable, D = enable Digital,
d = disable, which allow a connector to be forced into a certain state.

When we need to add the standard timing mode, we will firstly check whether it
can be found in DMT table by comparing the hdisplay/vdisplay/vfresh_rate.
If it can't be found, then we will use the cvt/gtf to add the required mode.
If it can be found, it will be returned.
At the same time the function of drm_mode_vrefresh is also fixed. It will
return the result of actual refresh_rate plus 0.5.
For example:
When the calculated value is 84.9, then the fresh_rate is 85.
When the calculated value is 70.02, then the fresh_rate is 70.

The calculated vdisplay was half the right value.

The code which takes probed modes and adds them to a connector eliminates
duplicate modes by comparing them using drm_mode_equal. That function
doesn't consider the type bits, which means that any modes which differ only
in the type field will be lost.
One of the bits in the mode->type field is the DRM_MODE_TYPE_PREFERRED bit.
If the mode with that bit is lost, then higher level code will not know
which mode to select, causing a random mode to be used instead.
This patch simply merges the two mode type bits together; that seems
reasonable to me, but perhaps only a subset of the bits should be used? None
of these can be user defined as they all come from looking at just the
hardware.

Two macro definitions of DRM_DEBUG_KMS/MODE can be used to add the debug
info related with KMS. It is confusing.
So remove the macro definition of DRM_DEBUG_MODE. Instead it can be replaced
by the DRM_DEBUG_KMS.

We will have to add a prefix when using the macro defintion of DRM_DEBUG_KMS
/DRM_DEBUG_DRIVER/MODE. It is not convenient. We should use the DRM_NAME
as default prefix.
So remove the prefix in the macro definition of DRM_DEBUG_KMS/DRIVER/MODE.

Add the GTF algorithm in kernel space. And this function can be called to
generate the required modeline.
I copied it from the file of xserver/hw/xfree86/modes/xf86gtf.c. What I have
done is to translate it by using integer calculation. This is to avoid
the float-point calculation in kernel space.
At the same tie I also refer to the function of fb_get_mode in
drivers/video/fbmon.c

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.
