Below link is a libdrm codes used by Tizen platform.
https://review.tizen.org/git/?p=platform/upstream/libdrm.git;a=commit;h=6e97f25af63a9511ddd3b195a0b844671b8d1a5d

In Tizen platform, there is a buffer manager called TBM(Tizem Buffer Manager), and
this manager uses this new interface of libdrm.

Tizen platform can use window systems - wayland or X server - according to version.
And the native systems use the TBM interfaces to manage gem buffer.

Hmm... Daniel, seems there was your mislead. I will never merge such PREP/FINI interfaces
for cache operation until these will be reviewed enough through real user.
So this pull request doesn't include them. We are just planning to apply these interfaces
to Tizen platform for more test.

Thanks,
Inki Dae
