Tomi Valkeinen 0049fb2603 OMAPFB: use dma_alloc_attrs to allocate memory
Use dma_alloc_attrs to allocate memory instead of omap specific vram
allocator. After this we can remove the omap vram allocator.

There are some downsides to this change:

1) dma_alloc_attrs doesn't let us allocate at certain physical address.
However, this should not be a problem as this feature of vram allocator
is only used when reserving the framebuffer that was initialized by the
bootloader, and we don't currently support "passing" a framebuffer from
the bootloader to the kernel anyway.

2) dma_alloc_attrs, as of now, always ioremaps the allocated area, and
we don't need the ioremap when using VRFB. This patch uses
DMA_ATTR_NO_KERNEL_MAPPING for the allocation, but the flag is currently
not operational.

3) OMAPFB_GET_VRAM_INFO ioctl cannot return real values anymore. I
changed the ioctl to return 64M for all the values, which, I hope, the
applications will interpret as "there's enough vram".

4) "vram" kernel parameter to define how much ram to reserve for video
use no longer works. The user needs to enable CMA and use "cma"
parameter.

Ricardo Neri 9c0b842036 OMAPDSS: Provide an interface for audio support
There exist several display technologies and standards that support audio as
well. Hence, it is relevant to update the DSS device driver to provide an audio
interface that may be used by an audio driver or any other driver interested in
the functionality.

The audio_enable function is intended to prepare the relevant
IP for playback (e.g., enabling an audio FIFO, taking in/out of reset
some IP, enabling companion chips, etc). It is intended to be called before
audio_start. The audio_disable function performs the reverse operation and is
intended to be called after audio_stop.

While a given DSS device driver may support audio, it is possible that for
certain configurations audio is not supported (e.g., an HDMI display using a
VESA video timing). The audio_supported function is intended to query whether
the current configuration of the display supports audio.

The audio_config function is intended to configure all the relevant audio
parameters of the display. In order to make the function independent of any
specific DSS device driver, a struct omap_dss_audio is defined. Its purpose
is to contain all the required parameters for audio configuration. At the
moment, such structure contains pointers to IEC-60958 channel status word and
CEA-861 audio infoframe structures. This should be enough to support HDMI and
DisplayPort, as both are based on CEA-861 and IEC-60958. The omap_dss_audio
structure may be extended in the future if required.

The audio_enable/disable, audio_config and audio_supported functions could be
implemented as functions that may sleep. Hence, they should not be called
while holding a spinlock or a readlock.

The audio_start/audio_stop function is intended to effectively start/stop audio
playback after the configuration has taken place. These functions are designed
to be used in an atomic context. Hence, audio_start should return quickly and be
called only after all the needed resources for audio playback (audio FIFOs,
DMA channels, companion chips, etc) have been enabled to begin data transfers.
audio_stop is designed to only stop the audio transfers. The resources used
for playback are released using audio_disable.

A new enum omap_dss_audio_state is introduced to help the implementations of
the interface to keep track of the audio state. The initial state is _DISABLED;
then, the state transitions to _CONFIGURED, and then, when it is ready to
play audio, to _ENABLED. The state _PLAYING is used when the audio is being
rendered.

Grazvydas Ignotas 0aca3c63e0 OMAPDSS: VENC: allow switching venc output type at runtime
VENC output type (composite/svideo) doesn't have to be fixed by board
wiring, it is possible to also provide composite signal through svideo
luminance connector (software enabled), which is what pandora does.

Having to recompile the kernel for users who have TV connector types
that don't match default board setting is very inconvenient, especially
for users of a consumer device, so add support for switching VENC output
type at runtime over a new sysfs file output_type.

The DSS documentation didn't mention the option to give the VRAM start
address.
