Hi All,

This series converts the vboxvideo driver to the modesetting API, once this is merged I will submit a patch to move the driver out of staging and into drivers/gpu/drm.

This series consists of 3 parts:

1. More cleanups / prep work for atomic conversion
2. The actual atomic conversion, this is modelled after the atomic conversion of the qxl driver done by Gabriel Krisman Bertazi. Gabriel if you are reading this, thank you for providing a roadmap how to go about this.
3. Restore some features which were lost by the atomic conversion + more cleanups

Given how tiny vbox is it's easier if I just review the overall diff I think. Overall = patch that adds the entire driver to drm, ignoring what's been going on in staging. Please reply with that (I can do it locally, but that doesn't allow me to conveniently reply&comment).

Cheers, Daniel
