The plane reset implementation creates a custom state
subclass, but only initializes a pristine state without resetting any
hardware. This is equivalent to what atomic_create_state expects.
Convert to it.

The conversion was done using the following Coccinelle semantic patch:

The armada crtc implementation uses the deprecated
drm_atomic_helper_crtc_reset() as its reset hook.

Switch to drm_atomic_helper_crtc_create_state() instead.

<title>drm: Rename struct drm_atomic_state to drm_atomic_commit</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5164f7e7ff8ec7d41065d3862630c2ba09854328</id>
<content type='text'>
The KMS framework uses two slightly different definitions for the state
concept. For a given object (plane, CRTC, encoder, etc., so
drm_$OBJECT_state), the state is the entire state of that object.
However, at the device level, drm_atomic_state refers to a state update
for a limited number of objects.

Thus, drm_atomic_state isn't the entire device state, but only the full
state of some objects in that device. This has been an endless source of
confusion and thus bugs.

We can rename the drm_atomic_state structure to drm_atomic_commit to
make it less confusing.

This patch was created using:

rg -l drm_atomic_state | \
	xargs sed -i 's/drm_atomic_state/drm_atomic_commit/g; s/drm_atomic_commit_helper/drm_atomic_state_helper/g'
mv drivers/gpu/drm/tests/drm_atomic_state_test.c drivers/gpu/drm/tests/drm_atomic_commit_test.c

<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bf4afc53b77aeaa48b5409da5c8da6bb4eff7f43</id>
<content type='text'>
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Move the calls to drm_fb_helper_alloc_info() from drivers into a
single place in fbdev helpers. Allocates struct fb_info for a new
framebuffer device. Then call drm_fb_helper_single_fb_probe() to
create an fbdev screen buffer. Also release the instance on errors
by calling drm_fb_helper_release_info().

Simplifies the code and fixes the error cleanup for some of the
drivers.

Regular release of the struct fb_info instance still happens in
drm_fb_helper_fini() as before.

v2:
- remove error rollback in driver implementations (kernel test robot)
- initialize info in TTM implementation (kernel test robot)

There are a gazillion files that depend on drm_print.h being indirectly
included via drm_buddy.h, drm_mm.h, or ttm/ttm_resource.h. In
preparation for removing those includes, explicitly include drm_print.h
where needed.

<content type='text'>
Add free callback to struct drm_client_funcs. Invoke function to
free the client memory as part of the release process. Implement
free for fbdev emulation.

Fbdev emulation allocates and prepares client memory in
drm_fbdev_client_setup(). The release happens in fb_destroy from
struct fb_ops. Multiple implementations of this callback exist in
the various drivers that provide an fbdev implementation. Each of
them needs to follow the implementation details of the fbdev setup
code.

Adding a free callback for the client puts the unprepare and release
of the fbdev client in a single place.

The armada atomic_check implementation uses the deprecated
drm_atomic_get_existing_crtc_state() helper.

This hook is called as part of the global atomic_check, thus before the
states are swapped. The existing state thus points to the new state, and
we can use drm_atomic_get_new_crtc_state() instead.

The drm_atomic_state pointer passed to atomic_check is always valid, so
checking if it's NULL or not is pointless. Remove the check.
