This patch converts the modetables used in viafb to
- remove the strange thing that sync_end and blanking_end contained
the length and not the absolute value
- remove hundreds of useless defines
- use fb_videomode and not our own definition so modes defined in
the subsystem and received via EDID are compatible with ours
As the modes are now stored in a flat structure and no longer in a
tree like thing the lookup time was increased but as it is a rare
event anyway it shouldn't matter. Otherwise the behaviour should be
the same as before.

This patch implementes this mode (viafb_SAMM_ON set and
viafb_dual_fb not set) in a useful way for CRT and DVI devices.
The same content is shown on both devices in different video modes.
The first (primary) resolution must not be bigger than the secondary
one and determines the visible region. The same content is shown
centered on the secondary output.

This patch starts to use the information in var for modesetting for
CRT and DVI devices. This is the right thing as it allows us to use
more generic modes than the ones predefined by VIA. We do not yet
allow more generic modes as check_var still limits them to the
predefined ones but with this patch applied it would be really easy
to do so. A problem was VIAs SAMM mode as it has 2 different modes
but just one frame buffer device. This is solved by creating a
pseudo var which contains enough information to use it for
modesetting. Hopefully one day we can use information in var for all
modes that do not involve hardware scaling.
Well I'd like to say that the chance of regressions is low but it is
quite likely that the behaviour in some cases changed especially
when SAMM is involved. I hope we made it better than before in
particular the DVI frequency check was probably broken before and
hopefully works better now.

This patch removes the max_hres and max_vres which are not used at
the moment. In general they could be useful but it would be better
to get them via any standard EDID implementation and not the buggy
incomplete one currently used which is also removed as far as
possible.

The clocks can be easily recalculated by the timing and refresh value.
This brings us one step closer to removing VIAs modetable and use
generic ones and being easier extensible.

This patch moves common parts of dvi.c, lcd.c and vt1636.c to hw.c to
start a per output device power management. There should be no runtime
changes aside that this patch enables the proc interface to enable/disable
devices when needed which greatly increases the chances that changes to
the output device configuration will work. However the power management is
not yet complete so it might fail on some configurations. As this area is
quite complex and touches undocumented things there is a slight chance of
regressions.

This patch merges the remaining functionality of the output path
function in the associated enabling functions. This is very natural as
most of the remaining code does actually enable the device.
Just some more or less intelligent code merge. If no stupid mistakes
occured there should be no regressions.

This patch moves data of interest into a new viafb_dev structure which
describes the device as a whole; the idea here is to create a separation
between what all devices may need and what the framebuffer device in
particular needs.
I've also made some small steps toward thinning out the global.h mess.

The first step toward turning viafb into a multifunction driver. This
patch creates a new via-core.c file which serves as the main PCI driver;
everything else comes below that. Some work has been done to rationalize
the i2c drivers in this new scheme.

This patch changes the way how the various I2C busses are used internally
inside the viafb driver: Previosuly, only a single i2c_adapter was created,
even though two different hardware I2C busses are accessed: A structure member
in a global variable was modified to indicate the bus to be used.
Now, all existing hardware busses are registered with the i2c core, and the
viafb_i2c_{read,write}byte[s]() function take the adapter number as function
call parameter, rather than referring to the global structure member.

Remove some unused variables, move some dvi code around and store the
detected maximum resolution for later use. The vertical resolution is
handled as the old code did it but I hope it can be read from the hardware
some day.

This is the first step to remove an artificial global index that was used
in two ways:
1. As a pseudo index in the mode table. Pseudo as you had to search
through the table to find the referenced entry. This was replaced by
using a pointer to the entry.
2. As a shortcut to compare a combination of horizontal and vertical
resolution at the same time.
This was replaced by a "(hres<<16) | vres" which is good enough for
now and the near future. If vres or hres become greater than 2^16 this
might indeed cause problems but this solution allows to split this
indexing mess up without the requirement to do even more code changes.
This is a big change that will allow more clean ups. It should be a bit
faster but that is probably not relevant for normal operation. No
regressions expected but as this is a relatively big step heavy testing is
appreciated.

This patch introduces viafb_shared and is the beginning of a smooth
transition to use it.
viafb_shared should contain all general, non-surface specific data that
should be shared along all viafb framebuffers while viafb_par should only
contain things that are specific to each surface or in other words extend
fb_info. This change is intended to clean the dual/multi framebuffer
handling up.
This removes the annoyance that viafbinfo1->par points to a different
structure than viaparinfo1.
As the last change is fundamental it is difficult to ensure that all parts
of the driver do not depend on the previous brokenness but the chance of
regressions is very low.
