876aaafdbd sunxi: video: Set input sync enable
Add a write to the "unknown" (*) register to enable auto input sync, when
initially adding sunxi hdmi output support this magic write from the android
kernel code was missed, causing lcdc -> hdmi encoder sync problems.

With this write added, we can drop the modesetting retries and the extra
delays added to work around these sync problems.

With the retries dropped there also is no need to 0 all the enable flags at
the beginning of the modeset, as they are initialized to 0 already by
engines_init.

*) "unknown" is the actual name of this register in the android kernel sources

5ee0bea49a sunxi: video: Add hdmi support
So far we've been programming the hdmi-encoder to send out dvi data over the
hdmi connector. This works well for most devices, including hdmi devices, but
not all devices accept dvi data on a hdmi input.

Add support for sending proper hdmi data over the hdmi output found on most
sunxi boards. This can be turned on by adding monitor=hdmi as option to the
video-mode env. variable.

A follow up patch will determine whether to send dvi or hdmi automatically when
EDID is used.

75481607c7 sunxi: video: Add DDC & EDID support
Add DDC & EDID support and use it to automatically select the native mode of
the attached monitor. This can be disabled by adding edid=0 as option
to the video-mode env. variable.

2d7a084ba0 sunxi: video: Add simplefb support
Add simplefb support, note this depends on the kernel having support for
the clocks property which has recently been added to the simplefb devicetree
binding.

7f2c521f90 sunxi: video: Add cfb console driver for sunxi
This adds a fixed mode hdmi driver for the sunxi platform. The fixed
mode is a relatively safe 1024x768, more complete EDID handling is
currently not provided. Only HDMI is supported today.

This code is enabled when HPD detects an attached monitor.

Current config is such that 8MB is shaved off at the top of the RAM.
This avoids several memory handling issues, most significant is the fact
that on linux on ARM you are not allowed to remap known RAM as IO. A
clued in display driver will be able to recycle this reserved RAM in
future though.

cfbconsole was chosen as it provides the most important functionality: a
working u-boot console, allowing for the debugging of certain issues
without the need for a UART.
