Hi,

I really liked the sdrm layer. At least some bits of it. I've been working
on a "simple" DRM driver as well. The hardware has no fancy acceleration
features, just a simple buffer and some scanout logic. I'm basically using
the same gem buffer structure and the buffer is also allocated using
dma_alloc_writecombine, which means we can probably share all of the GEM
handling code and probably also most of the fbdev code. I also started with
the Exynos GEM code as a template, but reworked it later to be more like the
UDL code, which made it a bit more compact. I think it would be a good idea
to put at least the GEM handling in some common code as I expect that we'll
see more similar "simple" DRM drivers pop up.

The code in question can be found at
https://github.com/lclausen-adi/linux-2.6/commit/87a8fd6b98eeee317c7a486846cc8405d0bd68d8

Btw. the imx-drm.h is missing in your patch.
