This is the first patchset to convert ast to use managed interfaces. These patches address modesetting. I expect that there will be at least one more set of patches for memory management and one for device strcutures.
Patches 1 to 11 tackle HW cursor handling. The overall point is to get cursor support out of the plane functions and put the code into helpers. There are quite a few improvements that make cursors easier and faster to use. Patch 10 converts cursors to managed release.
With cursors out of the way, modesetting initialization is much more simple. Patches 12 to 14 put all related code next to each other and switch to managed initialization.
The patchset was tested on AST2100 hardware.
Thomas Zimmermann (14): drm/ast: Move cursor functions to ast_cursor.c drm/ast: Pass struct ast_private instance to cursor init/fini functions drm/ast: Move cursor fb pinning and mapping into helper drm/ast: Update cursor image and checksum from same function drm/ast: Move cursor pageflip into helper drm/ast: Replace ast_cursor_move() with ast_cursor_show() drm/ast: Don't enable HW cursors twice during atomic update drm/ast: Add helper to hide cursor drm/ast: Keep cursor HW BOs mapped drm/ast: Managed cursor release drm/ast: Init cursors before creating modesetting structures drm/ast: Replace struct ast_crtc with struct drm_crtc drm/ast: Use managed mode-config init drm/ast: Initialize mode setting in ast_mode_config_init()
