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 removes the remaining places where assumptions about the
structure of the modetable were made. Aside from some places where
assumptions are made that certain modes are in the modetable the
only code dealing with the modetable and not just a single mode is
in viamode. This will allow chaniging the modetable and use other
sources for videomodes like the subsystem or EDID.

This patch introduces 2 new functions for selecting a single mode
based on hres, vres and refresh rate and changes some uses to use
those. The advantage is that it is less error prone than doing the
selection based on refresh rate everywhere and allows replacing the
modetable structure. This includes a little change that users may
notice: If a refresh rate was given as module parameters but does
not exist in the modetable prior to this patch a refresh rate of 60
was assumed and after this patch the closest supported refresh rate
to the one provided by the user is used.

The timing for 640x480-60 was handled different than all others.
This patch changes this by changing the blanking start and end.
The reason for this is that I can't find any reason for the old
behaviour and it was not consistent anyway as the special case for
LCD did not always trigger as the LCD code does not use this
function and it did trigger regardless of whether the display set is
CRT or LCD but only based whether any DVI/LCD device exists.
There are no negative effects observed for CRT or DVI devices.

When allowing some PLL calculation we get a frequency that seems to
be a bit higher than what the OLPC DCON likes resulting in a still
readable but not so good image. We don't really know whether this is
a problem with the calculation formula or the OLPC but as other
displays seem to be happy with the other modes adjusting the OLPC
refresh looks like the better thing. This patch prevents a
regression when dynamic PLL calculation is allowed.

This patch fixes a regression introduced by
fd3cc69848b7e1873e5f12bbcdd572b20277ecf3a
"viafb: remove duplicated clock storage"
caused by an incosistent mode which pretended to have a higher
refresh rate than it actually had. The wrong refresh rate resulted
in a calculated higher pixclock which the OLPC DCON could not handle.
By reducing the refresh rate to 50Hz we get close to the old
pixclock which makes the OLPC display usable again.
Minor other adjustments are needed as 60Hz is assumed to be a safe
value which is not true for OLPC DCON. This is no problem as we only
support 1200x900 on the OLPC.

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 removes the direct lookup table for resolution+refresh and
pixclock by calculating this information from the mode table. Removes a
lot of dupllication and error potential by just doing a little more
calculations on each mode change.

These parameters are the same for all currently known VIA IGPs so it
does not make any sense to store them with IGP specific data. This
saves a few bytes and helps a bit in dicovering the real differences.

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.

At least for VX800 this initialization is not very good as some parts of
the register are written with reserved values. This makes the display go
white in some configurations and not usable until the framebuffer is
removed. It's better to not initialize it as it allows to use a
previously (by BIOS) correctly configured display.
This patch makes some displays work but might cause problems on others.
This is bad but can not be easily avoided. If this causes some
regressions it's probably the best to fix it in the 'active' display setup
code.

Remove unneeeded declarations from the header and makes it more
maintainable by evaluating the array size in the file the array exist in
and exporting it via variables. This removes the need to keep the array
size in the header in sync with the real array size.

Currently the start address is set to an initial value every time
viafb_setmode is called.
This is not done consistently along graphic cores and not even the whole
address but often only parts of it. On top of that it seems useless as
the real/final address will be set by viafb_set_start_addr a few lines
later.
Remove this superfluous initalization to shrink register initalization and
as a start to decouple primary and secondary display. Code cleanup, no
notable runtime change expected.

The current code initializes the register for CX700 chips 2 times due to a
missing break as discovered by Harald Welte.
As CX700 and VX800 have exactly the same register initialization we can
use one for both to avoid duplicated code.
As this is a pure code cleanup no measurable runtime effects are expected.
