This reverts commit 1d71f42b35ed66d90a9a39bc515bb16cfe2d4a46.

Adding fifo merge feature as an omapdss internal configuration was a
mistake. We cannot hide from the users of omapdss the complexities of
fifo merge.

This commit removes the fifo merge support, which luckily is easily done
as it was handled totally inside apply.c.

The plan is to try fifo merge again later when it is more clear how the
hardware acts in various situations, and how the omapdrm wants to use
fifo merge.
Nitpick: This isn't an exact revert right? Maybe we should mention that, 
so that if someone tries to apply the old patch, it doesn't fail.
Yep, I added a note.
