Pull fbdev updates from Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz:
"Mostly small fixes and cleanups for fb drivers (the biggest updates
are for udlfb and pxafb drivers). This also adds deferred console
takeover support to the console code and efifb driver.
Summary:
- add support for deferred console takeover, when enabled defers
fbcon taking over the console from the dummy console until the
first text is displayed on the console - together with the "quiet"
kernel commandline option this allows fbcon to still be used
together with a smooth graphical bootup (Hans de Goede)
- improve console locking debugging code (Thomas Zimmermann)
- copy the ACPI BGRT boot graphics to the framebuffer when deferred
console takeover support is used in efifb driver (Hans de Goede)
- update udlfb driver - fix lost console when the user unplugs a USB
adapter, fix the screen corruption issue, fix locking and add some
performance optimizations (Mikulas Patocka)
- update pxafb driver - fix using uninitialized memory, switch to
devm_* API, handle initialization errors and add support for
lcd-supply regulator (Daniel Mack)
- add support for boards booted with a DeviceTree in pxa3xx_gcu
driver (Daniel Mack)
- rename omap2 module to omap2fb.ko to avoid conflicts with omap1
driver (Arnd Bergmann)
- enable ACPI-based enumeration for goldfishfb driver (Yu Ning)
- fix goldfishfb driver to make user space Android code use 60 fps
(Christoffer Dall)
- print big fat warning when nomodeset kernel parameter is used in
vgacon driver (Lyude Paul)
- remove VLA usage from fsl-diu-fb driver (Kees Cook)
- misc fixes (Julia Lawall, Geert Uytterhoeven, Fredrik Noring,
Yisheng Xie, Dan Carpenter, Daniel Vetter, Anton Vasilyev, Randy
Dunlap, Gustavo A. R. Silva, Colin Ian King, Fengguang Wu)

"Here is the bit set of char/misc drivers for 4.19-rc1
There is a lot here, much more than normal, seems like everyone is
writing new driver subsystems these days... Anyway, major things here
are:
- new FSI driver subsystem, yet-another-powerpc low-level hardware
bus
- gnss, finally an in-kernel GPS subsystem to try to tame all of the
crazy out-of-tree drivers that have been floating around for years,
combined with some really hacky userspace implementations. This is
only for GNSS receivers, but you have to start somewhere, and this
is great to see.
Other than that, there are new slimbus drivers, new coresight drivers,
new fpga drivers, and loads of DT bindings for all of these and
existing drivers.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues"

Taking over the console involves allocating mem with GFP_KERNEL, talking
to drm drivers, etc. So this should not be done from an atomic context.
But the console-output trigger deferred console takeover may happen from an
atomic context, which leads to "BUG: sleeping function called from invalid
context" errors.
This commit fixes these errors by doing the deferred takeover from a
workqueue.

We rely on dummycon's output notifier mechanism to defer the takeover.
If say vgacon is the current console driver then dummycon will never get
used so its output notifier will also never get called and fbcon never
takes over. This commit fixes this by only deferring the console takeover
if the current console driver is the dummycon driver.
This commit also moves the entirety of fbcon_start under the console_lock,
since the conswitchp which fbcon_start now checks is protected by it.
This commit also inlines fbcon_register_output_notifier, since we now
need a #ifdef CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DEFERRED_TAKEOVER in fbcon_start
anyways because of the write access to the deferred_takeover variable,
this has the added advantage that it puts the
dummycon_register_output_notifier() call directly after the "conswitchp !=
&dummy_con" comparison making it clear why that check is there.
Note the arch setup code will set conswitchp to either dummy_con or
vga_con, in the cases where it gets set to vga_con even though their is
no vga_con present we rely on vga_con_startup() to set conswitchp to
dummy_con. vga_con_startup() is guaranteed to happen before
fb_console_init() as it gets called as a console_initcall where as
fb_console_init() gets called as a subsys_initcall.

Having FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DEFERRED_TAKEOVER with fbdev+fbcon being build
as a module does not make much sense.
Having FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DEFERRED_TAKEOVER only when fbdev+fbcon are
builtin was always the intention, hence the =y checks but they were
checking the wrong option, fbcon is build as part of fb.ko, so we must
check for FB=y.

Currently, the udlfb driver only tests for identical bytes at the
beginning or at the end of a page and renders anything between the first
and last mismatching pixel. But pages are not the same as lines, so this
is quite suboptimal - if there is something modified at the beginning of a
page and at the end of a page, the whole page is rendered, even if most of
the page is not modified.
This patch makes it test for identical pixels at the beginning and end of
each rendering command. This patch improves identical byte detection by
41% when playing video in a window.
This patch also fixes a possible screen corruption if the user is writing
to the framebuffer while dlfb_render_hline is in progress - the pixel data
that is copied to the backbuffer with memcpy may be different from the
pixel data that is actually rendered to the hardware (because the content
of the framebuffer may change between memcpy and the rendering command).
We must make sure that we copy exactly the same pixel as the pixel that is
being rendered.

This patch changes udlfb so that it may reallocate the framebuffer when
setting higher-resolution mode. If we boot the system without monitor
attached, udlfb creates a framebuffer with the size 800x600. This patch
makes it possible to select higher videomode with the fbset command when
a monitor is attached.
Note that there is no reliable way to prevent the system from touching the
old framebuffer, so we must not free it. We add it to the list
dlfb->deferred_free and free it when the driver is unloaded.

The udlfb driver reprograms the hardware everytime the user switches the
console, that makes quite unusable when working on the console.
This patch makes the driver remember the videomode we are in and avoid
reprogramming the hardware if we switch to the same videomode.
We mask the "activate" field and the "FB_VMODE_SMOOTH_XPAN" flag when
comparing the videomode, because they cause spurious switches when
switching to and from the Xserver.
