From: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@xxxxxxx>
Implement DRM's aperture helpers under video/ for sharing with other
sub-systems. Remove DRM-isms from the interface. The helpers track
the ownership of framebuffer apertures and provide hand-over from
firmware, such as EFI and VESA, to native graphics drivers.
Other subsystems, such as fbdev and vfio, also have to maintain ownership
of framebuffer apertures. Moving DRM's aperture helpers to a more public
location allows all subsystems to interact with each other and share a
common implementation.
The aperture helpers are selected by the various firmware drivers within
DRM and fbdev, and the VGA text-console driver.
The original DRM interface is kept in place for use by DRM drivers.

+/**
+ * DOC: overview
+ *
+ * A graphics device might be supported by different drivers, but only one
+ * driver can be active at any given time. Many systems load a generic
+ * graphics drivers, such as EFI-GOP or VESA, early during the boot process.
+ * During later boot stages, they replace the generic driver with a dedicated,
+ * hardware-specific driver. To take over the device the dedicated driver
+ * first has to remove the generic driver. Aperture functions manage
+ * ownership of framebuffer memory and hand-over between drivers.
+ *
+ * Graphics drivers should call remove_conflicting_devices()
+ * at the top of their probe function. The function removes any generic
+ * driver that is currently associated with the given framebuffer memory.
+ * If the framebuffer is located at PCI BAR 0, the rsp code looks as in the
+ * example given below. The cod assumes a DRM driver.
+ *
+ * .. code-block:: c
+ *
+ * static const struct drm_driver example_driver = {
+ * .name = "exampledrm",
+ * ...
+ * };
+ *
+ * static int remove_conflicting_framebuffers(struct pci_dev *pdev)
+ * {
+ * bool primary = false;
+ * resource_size_t base, size;
+ * int ret;
+ *
+ * base = pci_resource_start(pdev, 0);
+ * size = pci_resource_len(pdev, 0);
+ * #ifdef CONFIG_X86
+ * primary = pdev->resource[PCI_ROM_RESOURCE].flags & IORESOURCE_ROM_SHADOW;
+ * #endif
+ *
+ * return remove_conflicting_devices(base, size, primary, &example_driver->name);
+ * }
+ *
+ * static int probe(struct pci_dev *pdev)
+ * {
+ * int ret;
+ *
+ * // Remove any generic drivers...
+ * ret = remove_conflicting_framebuffers(pdev);
+ * if (ret)
+ * return ret;
+ *
+ * // ... and initialize the hardware.
+ * ...
+ *
+ * drm_dev_register();
+ *
+ * return 0;
+ * }
+ *
+ * PCI device drivers can also call remove_conflicting_pci_devices() and let the
+ * function detect the apertures automatically. Device drivers without knowledge of
+ * the framebuffer's location shall call remove_all_conflicting_devices(),
+ * which removes all known devices.
+ *
+ * Drivers that are susceptible to being removed by other drivers, such as
+ * generic EFI or VESA drivers, have to register themselves as owners of their
+ * framebuffer apertures. Ownership of the framebuffer memory is achieved
+ * by calling devm_acquire_aperture_of_platform_device(). On success, the driver
+ * is the owner of the framebuffer range. The function fails if the
+ * framebuffer is already owned by another driver. See below for an example.
+ *
+ * .. code-block:: c
+ *
+ * static int acquire_framebuffers(struct drm_device *dev, struct platform_device *pdev)
+ * {
+ * resource_size_t base, size;
+ *
+ * mem = platform_get_resource(pdev, IORESOURCE_MEM, 0);
+ * if (!mem)
+ * return -EINVAL;
+ * base = mem->start;
+ * size = resource_size(mem);
+ *
+ * return devm_acquire_aperture_of_platform_device(pdev, base, size);
+ * }
+ *
+ * static int probe(struct platform_device *pdev)
+ * {
+ * struct drm_device *dev;
+ * int ret;
+ *
+ * // ... Initialize the device...
+ * dev = devm_drm_dev_alloc();
+ * ...
+ *
+ * // ... and acquire ownership of the framebuffer.
+ * ret = acquire_framebuffers(dev, pdev);
+ * if (ret)
+ * return ret;
+ *
+ * drm_dev_register(dev, 0);
+ *
+ * return 0;
+ * }
+ *
+ * The generic driver is now subject to forced removal by other drivers. This
+ * only works for platform drivers that support hot unplugging.
+ * When a driver calls remove_conflicting_devices() et al
+ * for the registered framebuffer range, the aperture helpers call
+ * platform_device_unregister() and the generic driver unloads itself. It
+ * may not access the device's registers, framebuffer memory, ROM, etc
+ * afterwards.
