Add a very simple framework to register and lookup panels. Panel drivers can initialize a DRM panel and register it with the framework, allowing them to be retrieved and used by display drivers. Currently only support for DPMS and obtaining panel modes is provided. However it should be sufficient to enable a large number of panels. The framework should also be easily extensible to support more sophisticated kinds of panels such as DSI. The framework hasn't been tied into the DRM core, even though it should be easily possible to do so if that's what we want. In the current implementation, display drivers can simple make use of it to retrieve a panel, obtain its modes and control its DPMS mode. Note that this is currently only tested on systems that boot from a device tree. No glue code has been written yet for systems that use platform data, but it should be easy to add.

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).
The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:
1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.
2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
restricted regions of memory.
3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
switch.
4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
Documentation on the DRI is available from:
http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Documentation

http://dri.sourceforge.net/doc/
