Convert radeon's fbdev code to drm_client. Replaces the current

Only build fbdev support if the config option has been set.

I'm torn apart on that. On the one hand it looks like a really nice cleanup on the other hand we don't really want to touch radeon any more.

It's a driver in the upstream kernel. You have to expect at least some changes.


Alex what do you think? Is that worth the risk of breaking stuff?

Moving all fbdev emulation to struct drm_client is required for new in-kernel DRM clients, such as a DRM kernel logger or a boot splash.
