Thomas Zimmermann 80f7c3f776 drm/vram: Add helpers to validate a display mode's memory requirements
Devices with low amount of dedicated video memory may not be able
to use all possible display modes, as the framebuffers may not fit
into VRAM. The new helper function drm_vram_helper_mode_valid()
implements a simple test to sort out all display modes that can
not be used in any case. Drivers should call this function from
struct drm_mode_config_funcs.mode_valid.

The functionality was originally implemented by the ast driver, which
is being converted as well.

v2:
	* WARN_ON if VRAM memory manager has not been initialized
	* documentation fixes
	* unexported drm_vram_helper_mode_valid_internal()

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
