Add device_link from panel device (supplier) to DRM device (consumer)
when drm_panel_attach() is called. This patch should protect the master
DRM driver if an attached panel driver unbinds while it is in use. The
device_link should make sure the DRM device is unbound before the panel
driver becomes unavailable.
The device_link is removed when drm_panel_detach() is called. The
drm_panel_detach() should be called by the consumer DRM driver, not the
panel driver, otherwise both drivers are racing to delete the same link.

Remove all drm_panel_detach() calls from all panel drivers and update
the kerneldoc for drm_panel_detach().
Setting the connector and drm to NULL when the DRM panel device is going
away hardly serves any purpose. Usually the whole memory structure is
freed right after the remove call. However, calling the detach function
from the master DRM device, and setting the connector pointer to NULL,
has the logic of marking the panel again as available for another DRM
master to attach. The usual situation would be the same DRM master
device binding again.

The argument is never modified by the function, make it const.

Write more complete kerneldoc comments for the DRM panel API and
integrate the helpers in the DRM DocBook reference.

Add a very simple framework to register and lookup panels. Panel drivers
can initialize a DRM panel and register it with the framework, allowing
them to be retrieved and used by display drivers. Currently only support
for DPMS and obtaining panel modes is provided. However it should be
sufficient to enable a large number of panels. The framework should also
be easily extensible to support more sophisticated kinds of panels such
as DSI.
The framework hasn't been tied into the DRM core, even though it should
be easily possible to do so if that's what we want. In the current
implementation, display drivers can simple make use of it to retrieve a
panel, obtain its modes and control its DPMS mode.
Note that this is currently only tested on systems that boot from a
device tree. No glue code has been written yet for systems that use
platform data, but it should be easy to add.
