Peter Wu bf8744e40c qxl: refactor to use drm_fb_helper_fbdev_setup
Lots of code can be removed by relying on fb-helper:
- "struct drm_framebuffer" moves to fb_helper.fb.
- "struct drm_gem_object" moves to fb_helper.obj[0].
- "struct qxl_device" can be inferred as drm_fb_helper is embedded.
- qxl_user_framebuffer_create -> drm_gem_fb_create.
- qxl_user_framebuffer_destroy -> drm_gem_fb_destroy.
- qxl_fbdev_destroy -> drm_fb_helper_fbdev_teardown + vfree(shadow).

Remove unused code:
- qxl_fbdev_qobj_is_fb, qxl_fbdev_set_suspend.
- Unused fields of qxl_fbdev: delayed_ops, delayed_ops_lock, size.

Misc notes:
- The dirty callback is preserved as it is necessary to trigger update
  commands in the hw (the screen stays black otherwise).
- No idea when .create_handle in drm_framebuffer_funcs is used, but use
  the same drm_gem_fb_create_handle to match drm_gem_fb_funcs.
- I don't know why qxl_fb_find_or_create_single used to check for an
  existing framebuffer and removed that check to match other drivers.
- Use of drm_fb_helper_fbdev_teardown also requires "info->fbdefio" to
  be dynamically allocated. Replace the existing defio config by
  drm_fb_helper_defio_init to accomodate this.

Testing results: startx with fbdev, modesetting and qxl all seems to
work. Tested also with CONFIG_DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION=n, fbdev obviously
fails but others are fine. QEMU -spice and QEMU -spice with vdagent and
multiple (resized) displays (via remote-viewer) also works.
unbind vtconsole and rmmod has *not* regressed (i.e. it still trips on a
use-after-free in qxl_check_idle via qxl_ttm_fini).

Ideally setup/teardown is replaced by drm_fbdev_generic_setup as that
would result in further code reduction, improve error handling (like not
leaking shadow memory), but unfortunately QXL has no implementation for
qxl_gem_prime_vmap.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
