With module.h being implicitly everywhere via device.h, the absence
of explicitly including something for EXPORT_SYMBOL went unnoticed.
Since we are heading to fix things up and clean module.h from the
device.h file, we need to explicitly include these files now.

<title>OMAPDSS: remove vaddr from overlay info</title>

<id>212b0d50e2eb7fc60f7bea1e90e5867b5fc0647d</id>
<content type='text'>
overlay_info struct, used to configure overlays, currently includes both
physical and virtual addresses for the pixels. The vaddr was added to
support more exotic configurations where CPU would be used to update a
display, but it is not currently used and there has been no interest in
the feature. Using CPU to update a screen is also less interesting now
that OMAP4 has two LCD outputs.

This patch removes the vaddr field, and modifies the users of omapdss
accordingly. This makes the use of omapdss a bit simpler, as the user
doesn't need to think if it needs to give the vaddr.

Use the new read_edid() function to get EDID information from the
display (when available), and use the information to use a suitable mode
at initialization time.

Hot-plug is not yet supported, so the timings selected at init time will
stay even if the monitor would be changed.

DSS driver has not been "experimental" for many years now, so perhaps
it's time to remove the text from Kconfig titles.

Currently omapfb wants that all the display devices have a driver,
otherwise omapfb refuses to start. There's no real requirement to act
like that, and this patch will make omapfb give a warning and skip that
device.

<title>OMAP: DSS2: OMAPFB: Implement auto-update mode</title>

<id>27cc213ea7dde929692df46a64c8d8ef74663e48</id>
<content type='text'>
Implement auto-update mode for manual-update displays. omapfb driver
uses a delayed work to update the display with a constant rate.

The update mode can be changed via OMAPFB_SET_UPDATE_MODE ioctl, which
previously called omapdss but is now handled inside omapfb, and a new
sysfs file, "update_mode".

The update interval is by default 20 times per second, but can be
changed via "auto_update_freq" module parameter. There is also a new
module parameter "auto_update", which will make omapfb start manual
update displays in auto-update mode.

This auto-update mode can be used for testing if the userspace does not
support manual update displays properly. However, it is a very
inefficient solution, and should be considered more as a hack for
testing than something that could be used as a long term solution.

This struct will be used to hold auto/manual update state of a display

omapfb_mode_to_timings() had struct fb_info, struct fb_var and struct
fb_ops allocated from stack. This caused the stack usage grow quite
high.

Use kzalloc to allocate the structs instead.
