Hi Dave,
The SH Mobile DRM driver is now (in my opinion) ready for mainline. It requires GEM and KMS/FB helpers that have been reviewed on the list and tested. Sascha is waiting for them to reach your tree to send a pull request for another new driver.
Just a quick review before I pull,
Why does include/drm/shmob_drm.h exist? this file is meant to define the userspace API to the driver, if you don't have any userspace API or driver specific ioctls, this file shouldn't be required. You might want to create include/drm/shmob_internal.h maybe, if this is used as an interface to other places in the kernel. I probably need to check other have been doing the right thing here as well. (driver_drm.h should be user facing only)
The file contains platform data. I can move it to include/linux/platform_data/
Uggh drm_fb_cma_helper.c is pure midlayer mistake, are you 100% sure no driver is ever going to want to tweak the drm_fbdev_cma_ops? really? you are forcing the driver into a corner, drivers call into helpers, midlayers call into drivers or block them from being called. you should probably at least change it so the fb_ops are passed into drm_fbdev_cma_create.
I'll let Lars answer that.
