There will be more DRM drivers for firmware-provided framebuffers. Use the existing entry for simpledrm instead of adding a new one for each driver. Also add DRM's aperture helpers, which are part of the driver's infrastructure.

I think you could push this without waiting for 2/2 to be ready.

I wonder if we could add drivers/firmware/sysfb* as well, it certainly is related since is the place where different platforms register the device.
But it's not in drivers/gpu, hence the question if we could include it (and possibly merge it through drm-misc as well, etc).
Dave, Daniel, what do you think ?
