To enable aspect-ratio support in DRM, blindly exposing the aspect
ratio information along with mode, can break things in existing
user-spaces which have no intention or support to use this aspect
ratio information.

To avoid this, a new drm client cap is required to enable a
user-space to advertise if it supports modes with aspect-ratio. Based
on this cap value, the kernel will take a call on exposing the aspect
ratio info in modes or not.

This patch adds the client cap for aspect-ratio.

V3: rebase
V4: As suggested by Marteen Lankhorst modified the commit message
    explaining the need to use the DRM cap for aspect-ratio. Also,
    tweaked the comment lines in the code for better understanding and
    clarity, as recommended by Shashank Sharma.
V5: rebase
V6: rebase
V7: rebase
V8: rebase
V9: rebase
V10: added comment explaining that no userspace breaks on aspect-ratio
     mode bits.

Bogus indentation.

Thanks to point that out, will fix this.

Also where's the aspect_ratio_allowed handling for the atomic cap?
Or did we decide against it after all?

As discussed, aspect ratio is handled in the atomic modeset path, where in the modeset requests with aspect-ratios
are rejected, if the aspect-ratio cap not set.
The part which is dropped is - hiding the aspect-ratio information, while returning a mode blob in the drm_mode_get_blob
if the cap is not set. The patch was dropped as no user-space currently uses getblob ioctl to get the mode-blob.

Ankit
