6bde2dc5e2 x86: Move FRAMEBUFFER_SET_VESA_MODE etc to video Kconfig
CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_SET_VESA_MODE and CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_VESA_MODE
are not x86-specific, so move them to drivers/video/Kconfig and
make them depend on VIDEO_VESA driver. Some cosmetic fixes are
applied to the Kconfig help text as well.

83edb2ace6 sunxi: video: Fix lvds panel support for sun6i+
We've never tested the lvds panel support on sun6i+ SoCs until now, and
unsurprisingly the lvds code needed some fixes to work on my ga10h A33
tablet with lvds panel. This makes the panel on that tablet actually work.

44d8ae5b69 sunxi: Introduce a hidden SUNXI_GEN_SUNxI Kconfig bool
sun6i and newer (derived) SoCs such as the sun8i-a23, sun8i-a33 and sun9i
have a various things in common, like having separate ahb reset control
registers, the SID living inside the pmic, custom pmic busses, new style
watchdog, etc.

This commit introduces a new hidden SUNXI_GEN_SUN6I Kconfig bool which can be
used to check for these features avoiding the need for an ever growing list
of "#if defined CONFIG_MACH_SUN?I" conditionals as we add support for more
"new style" sunxi SoCs.

Note that this commit changes the behavior of the gmac and hdmi code for
sun8i and the upcoming sun9i devices. This does not matter as sun8i does
not have gmac nor hdmi, and sun9i has new hardware-blocks for these so
the old code will not work there.

Also this is intentional as if a sun8i / sun9i variant which does use the
old hwblocks shows up then the GEN_SUN6I code paths will be the right ones
to use.

For completeness this also adds a SUNXI_GEN_SUN4I bool for A10/A13/A20.

3b4e16eb53 drivers/video/am335x-fb: Add possibility to wait for stable power/picture
Often on boards exists a circuit which switches power on/off to LCD display.
Due to the need of limiting the in-rush current the output voltage from this
circuit rises "slowly", so it is necessary to wait a bit (VCC ramp up time)
before starting output on LCD-pins.
This time is specified in <n> ms within the panel-settings, called "pup_delay"

Further some LCDs need a couple of frames to stabilize the image on it.
We have now the possibility to wait some time after starting output on LCD.
This time is also specified in <n> ms within panel-settings, called "pon_delay"

5633a296eb sunxi: video: Do not use CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE for the framebuffer
Do not use CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE for the framebuffer, instead override
board_get_usable_ram_top to make sure that u-boot is not relocated into the
area where we want to use the framebuffer, and patch the devicetree from
sunxi_simplefb_setup() to tell the kernel to not touch the framebuffer.

This makes u-boot properly see the framebuffer as dram, and initalize the
level 2 cache for it, fixing the very slow cfb scrolling problem.

As an added bonus this stops us from reserving the framebuffer when simplefb
is not used because an older kernel is booted, or hdp is used and no hdmi
cable was plugged in, freeing up the memory for kernel use in these cases.

fb75d972ea sunxi: video: Force h/vsync active high when using ext. vga dac on some boards
On both my A13-OLinuxIno and my A13-OLinuxIno-Micro, the vga output gives an
unstable image when active low v or hsync is used.

The problem seems to be specific to the OLinuxIno A13 (normal & micro)
boards. I've just looked up the schematics and they use an opendrain driver
for the vga sync lines, and with sync pulses it is the logical high->low
edge of the pulse which counts for the timing, which with an active low
sync is being driven by the pull-up, and that simply seems to not drive
it hard enough to get a stable image.

So force v and hsync active high on these boards. independent of what the
modeline says. This fixes the unstable image.

27515b20c1 sunxi: video: Add support for Hitachi tx18d42vm LVDS LCD panels
Add support for Hitachi tx18d42vm LVDS LCD panels, these panels have a
lcd controller which needs to be initialized over SPI, once that is
done they work like a regular LVDS panel.

7cd6f92d41 sunxi: video: Use frontend for dma on sun4i to fix memory bandwidth problems
Testing has shown that on sun4i the display backend engine does not have
deep enough fifo-s causing flickering / tearing in full-hd mode due to
fifo underruns. On sun4i use the display frontend engine to do the dma from
memory, as the frontend does have deep enough fifo-s.

As added advantage of this is that it results in much better memory bandwidth
as it reduces the amount of dram bank switches, for more details see:

Note that this changes the pipeline searched for in the simplefb node, we can
get away with doing this now, since no kernel has yet shipped with simplefb
dtb nodes, and I will make sure to get a simplefb node with the new pipeline
into 3.19 before it ships.
