[PATCH 00/49] DRM driver for Hikey 970

This patch series port the out-of-tree driver for Hikey 970 (which
should also support Hikey 960) from the official 96boards tree:

   https://github.com/96boards-hikey/linux/tree/hikey970-v4.9

Based on his history, this driver seems to be originally written
for Kernel 4.4, and was later ported to Kernel 4.9. The original
driver used to depend on ION (from Kernel 4.4) and had its own
implementation for FB dev API.

As I need to preserve the original history (with has patches from
both HiSilicon and from Linaro),  I'm starting from the original
patch applied there. The remaining patches are incremental,
and port this driver to work with upstream Kernel.

This driver doesn't depend on any firmware or on any special
userspace code. It works as-is with both X11 and Wayland.

Yet, I'm submitting it via staging due to the following reasons:

- It depends on the LDO3 power supply, which is provided by
  a regulator driver that it is currently on staging;
- Due to legal reasons, I need to preserve the authorship of
  each one responsbile for each patch. So, I need to start from
  the original patch from Kernel 4.4;
- There are still some problems I need to figure out how to solve:
   - The adv7535 can't get EDID data. Maybe it is a timing issue,
     but it requires more research to be sure about how to solve it;
   - The driver only accept resolutions on a defined list, as there's
     a known bug that this driver may have troubles with random
     resolutions. Probably due to a bug at the pixel clock settings;
   - Sometimes (at least with 1080p), it generates LDI underflow
     errors, which in turn causes the DRM to stop working. That
     happens for example when using gdm on Wayland and
     gnome on X11;
   - Probably related to the previous issue, when the monitor
     suspends due to DPMS, it doesn't return back to life.

So, IMO, the best is to keep it on staging for a while, until those
remaining bugs gets solved.

I added this series, together with the regulator driver and
a few other patches (including a hack to fix a Kernel 5.8 
regression at WiFi ) at:
