Merge tag 'drm-misc-next-2021-07-22' of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm/drm-misc into drm-next
drm-misc-next for v5.15-rc1: UAPI Changes: - Remove sysfs stats for dma-buf attachments, as it causes a performance regression. Previous merge is not in a rc kernel yet, so no userspace regression possible. Cross-subsystem Changes: - Sanitize user input in kyro's viewport ioctl. - Use refcount_t in fb_info->count - Assorted fixes to dma-buf. - Extend x86 efifb handling to all archs. - Fix neofb divide by 0. - Document corpro,gm7123 bridge dt bindings. Core Changes: - Slightly rework drm master handling. - Cleanup vgaarb handling. - Assorted fixes. Driver Changes: - Add support for ws2401 panel. - Assorted fixes to stm, ast, bochs. - Demidlayer ingenic irq.

+ bool "Mark VGA/VBE/EFI FB as generic system framebuffer"
+ depends on SYSFB
+ help
+ Firmwares often provide initial graphics framebuffers so the BIOS,
+ bootloader or kernel can show basic video-output during boot for
+ user-guidance and debugging. Historically, x86 used the VESA BIOS
+ Extensions and EFI-framebuffers for this, which are mostly limited
+ to x86 BIOS or EFI systems.
+ This option, if enabled, marks VGA/VBE/EFI framebuffers as generic
+ framebuffers so the new generic system-framebuffer drivers can be
+ used instead. If the framebuffer is not compatible with the generic
+ modes, it is advertised as fallback platform framebuffer so legacy
+ drivers like efifb, vesafb and uvesafb can pick it up.
+ If this option is not selected, all system framebuffers are always
+ marked as fallback platform framebuffers as usual.
+
+ Note: Legacy fbdev drivers, including vesafb, efifb, uvesafb, will
+ not be able to pick up generic system framebuffers if this option
+ is selected. You are highly encouraged to enable simplefb as
+ replacement if you select this option. simplefb can correctly deal
+ with generic system framebuffers. But you should still keep vesafb
+ and others enabled as fallback if a system framebuffer is
+ incompatible with simplefb.
+
+ If unsure, say Y.
