    drm: dumb scanout create/mmap for intel/radeon (v3) · ff72145b

    This is just an idea that might or might not be a good idea,
    it basically adds two ioctls to create a dumb and map a dumb buffer
    suitable for scanout. The handle can be passed to the KMS ioctls to create
    a framebuffer.
    
    It looks to me like it would be useful in the following cases:
    a) in development drivers - we can always provide a shadowfb fallback.
    b) libkms users - we can clean up libkms a lot and avoid linking
    to libdrm_*.
    c) plymouth via libkms is a lot easier.
    
    Userspace bits would be just calls + mmaps. We could probably
    mark these handles somehow as not being suitable for acceleartion
    so as top stop people who are dumber than dumb.
