The omapdrm driver requires omapdss panel drivers to expose ops like detect,
set_timings and check_timings. These can be NULL for fixed panel DPI, DBI, DSI
and SDI drivers. At some places, there are no checks to see if the panel driver
has these ops or not, and that leads to a crash.

The following things are done to make fixed panels work:

- The omap_connector's detect function is modified such that it considers panel
   types which are generally fixed panels as always connected(provided the panel
   driver doesn't have a detect op). Hence, the connector corresponding to these
   panels is always in a 'connected' state.

- If a panel driver doesn't have a check_timings op, assume that it supports the
   mode passed to omap_connector_mode_valid(the 'mode_valid' drm helper function)

- The function omap_encoder_update shouldn't really do anything for fixed
   resolution panels, make sure that it calls set_timings only if the panel
   driver has one.

v3: clear the timings local variable first before using memcmp
v2: make sure the timings we try to set for a fixed resolution panel match the
     panel's timings

Can we leave this part out? I don't like hardcoding things like that,
and if I'm not mistaken, this only affects VENC.

If the code above would use detect where available, and presume the
panel is connected in other cases, it'll be right for all other displays
but VENC, for which we have no connect information.

Or, there could be a special case for VENC, like above, which sets the
connector status to unknown for that. And connected for all others. It'd
still be hardcoded, but for much less cases.

I guess we can leave the status for VENC as always connected too, if we leave it as unknown by default and have no detect func for VENC, it would never run with omapdrm.
