Previous implementation does not handle case below: boot up one MST branch
to DP connector of ASIC. After boot up, hot plug 2nd MST branch to DP output
of 1st MST, GUID is not created for 2nd MST branch. When downstream port of
2nd MST branch send upstream request, it fails because 2nd MST branch GUID
is not available.

New Implementation: only create GUID for MST branch and save it within Branch.

drm_fixp_from_fraction allows us to create a fixed point directly
from a fraction, rather than creating fixed point values and dividing
later. This avoids overflow of our 64 bit value for large numbers.

drm_fixp2int_ceil allows us to return the ceiling of our fixed point

We want this for consistency with existing page_flip semantics.

Since this spurred quite a discussion on IRC also document why we
reject event generation when the pipe is off: It's not that it's hard
to implement, but userspace has a track recording which proves that it's
way too easy to accidentally abuse and cause havoc. We want to make
sure userspace doesn't get away with that.

v2: Somehow thought we do reject events already, but that code only
existed in my imagination ... Also suggestions from Thierry.

drm_dev_set_unique() uses a format string to define the unique name of a
device.  This feature is not used as currently all the calls to this
function either use "%s" as a format string or directly use
dev_name().

Even though this second kind of call does not introduce security
problems, because there cannot be "%" characters in dev_name() results,
gcc issues a warning when building with -Wformat-security flag
("warning: format string is not a string literal (potentially
insecure)").  This warning is useful to find real bugs like the one
fixed by commit 3958b792 ("configfs: fix kernel infoleak through
user-controlled format string").  False positives which do not bring
an extra value make the work of finding real bugs harder.

Therefore remove the format-string feature from drm_dev_set_unique().

Implement a new i915_audio_component_ops, get_eld().  It's called by
the audio driver to fetch the current audio status and ELD of the
given HDMI/DP port.  It returns the size of expected ELD bytes if it's
valid, zero if no valid ELD is found, or a negative error code.  The
current state of audio on/off is stored in the given pointer, too.

Note that the returned size isn't limited to the given max bytes.  If
the size is greater than the max bytes, it means that only a part of
ELD has been copied back.

For achieving this implementation, a new field audio_connector is
added to struct intel_digital_port.  It points to the connector
assigned to the given digital port.  It's set/reset at each audio
enable/disable call in intel_audio.c, and protected with av_mutex.

And merge any docbook we have into the kerneldoc comments.

Since it's a legacy entry point with only two implementation (one each
in atomic and legacy crtc helpers) I've made the documentation for
set_config fairly sparse - no one should ever need to look at this
again, all the ABI we have is baked into code.

For ->page_flip otoh I kept all the extensive docs from the docbook
and even extended it where it was lacking: Currently we have a pile of
legacy page_flip implemantations, and even for atomic drivers there's
not yet a standard implementation in the helpers. Which means every
driver needs to implement this itself, and precise specs are really
valuable.

Otherwise there's just cursor, which really just boils down to "use at
least universal planes". And gamma tables (where we have a bit a mess
with the fbdev helper gamma hooks).

The special case here is that both ->detect and ->force are actually
functions only called by the probe helpers and hence really shouldn't
be here. But since they've used by pretty much every driver I figured
it's better to just document this for now instead of holding this doc

Nouveau is the only user, and atomic drivers should do state
save/restoring differently. So move it into noveau.

Saves me typing some kerneldoc, too ;-)

v2: Move misplaced hunk into earlier nouveau patch.

They're not how system suspend/resume should be done with atomic
(there's new helpers for that developed by Thierry Reding), and for
legacy drivers this really should be a helper hook and not a core one.

But there's not even helper code to use them, and only 2 drivers
(which now have their own private hooks) set them. Ditch them.

- Merge the docbook into the kerneldoc comments.

- Spec in detail the precise semantics of the callbacks.

- For consistency in wording and easier review roll out kerneldoc also
  for crtc, encoder and connector for the standard hooks they share
  with planes.

v2: Suggestions from Thierry.

Especially document the assumptions and semantics of the callbacks
carefully. Just a warm-up excercise really.

v2: Spelling fixes (Eric).

v3: Consolidate more with existing docs:

- Remove the overview section explaining the bridge funcs, that's
  now all in the drm_bridge_funcs kerneldoc in much more detail.

- Use & to reference structs so that kerneldoc automatically inserts
  hyperlinks.

v4: Review from Thierry.

Originally the idea behind void* was to allow different sets of
helpers. But now we have that (with probe, plane, crtc and atomic
helpers) and we still just use the same set of vtables. That's the
only way to make the individual helpers modular and allow drivers to
pick&choose and transition between them. So this flexibility isn't
really needed. Also we have lots of non-vtable data meanwhile in core
structures too, this is not the first one at all.

Given that the void * is only trouble since gcc can't warn you if you
mix them up. Let's fix that and make them typesafe.

Currently we have 4 helper libraries (probe, crtc, plane & atomic)
that all use the same helper vtables. And that's by necessity since we
don't want to litter the core structs with one ops pointer per helper
library. Also often the reuse the same hooks (like atomic does, to
facilite conversion from existing drivers using crtc and plane
helpers).

Given all that it doesn't make sense to put the docs for these next to
specific helpers. Instead extract them into a new header file and
section in the docbook, and add references to them everywhere.

Unfortunately kernel-doc complains when an include directive doesn't
find anything (and it does by dumping crap into the output file). We
have to remove the now empty includes to avoid that, instead of leaving
them in for future proofing.

v2: More OCD in ordering functions.

v3: Spelling plus collate copyright headers properly.
