[PATCH 4/4] fb: add helpers to enable and test for the skip_vt_switch

From: Luis R. Rodriguez <hidden>
Date: 2013-03-28 12:05:07
Also in: cocci, dri-devel, lkml
Subsystem: drm drivers, framebuffer layer, intel drm i915 driver (meteor lake, dg2 and older excluding poulsbo, moorestown and derivative), the rest · Maintainers: David Airlie, Simona Vetter, Helge Deller, Jani Nikula, Joonas Lahtinen, Rodrigo Vivi, Tvrtko Ursulin, Linus Torvalds

From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <redacted>

This adds helpers to enable and test for the skip_vt_switch.
This gets us two things:

1) It allows us to require less collateral evolutions
   should we need changes on the fb_info data structure
   later (perhaps a bitmap flag).

2) Allows this feature to be backported with 0 delta
   required on the upstream drivers, we'd just require
   the static inline to do a no-op.

1) may be worth while considering, 2) is a new consideration
I'm trying to get others to evaluate to help with automatically
backporting the Linux kernel. This is the first time I am
aware someone argues for it.
