c2b12cd496 viafb: Reserve framebuffer memory for the upcoming camera driver
The camera engine captures to framebuffer memory, so we need to set some
aside for that purpose.  There is no proper memory allocator for fbmem;
instead, accel.c just trims some space off the top.  Alas, without creating
that proper memory allocator, the only way to make this work is to hack it
into the same bit of code in accel.c.  The allocation must happen *after*
the others (some code, including user-space XV stuff, makes assumptions on
where the cursor space is), and before the rest of the framebuffer is set
up.

3d28eb42c5 viafb: Add a simple VX855 DMA engine driver
This code provides a minimal amount of access to the DMA engine as
needed by the camera driver.  VX855 only; it's guaranteed not to work
on other chipsets, so it won't try.

94dd1a856b viafb: Add a simple interrupt management infrastructure
The viafb device shares a single interrupt control register among several
distinct subunits.  This adds a simple layer for management of that
register.

7582eb9be8 viafb: Turn GPIO and i2c into proper platform devices
Another step toward making this thing a real multifunction device driver.

24b4d82e47 viafb: Separate global and fb-specific data
This patch moves data of interest into a new viafb_dev structure which
describes the device as a whole; the idea here is to create a separation
between what all devices may need and what the framebuffer device in
particular needs.

I've also made some small steps toward thinning out the global.h mess.

f045f77bc0 viafb: Move core stuff into via-core.c
The first step toward turning viafb into a multifunction driver.  This
patch creates a new via-core.c file which serves as the main PCI driver;
everything else comes below that.  Some work has been done to rationalize
the i2c drivers in this new scheme.
