Hi,

Changes since v1:
- patches (2) added to remove the inclusion of video/omap-panel-data.h when it
  is not needed
- Transitional patch to create the video/omapfb_dss.h has been changed to copy
  the content of the omapdss.h in one step.

omapfb is deprecated. It will not receive new features, only bug fixes. On the.
other hand omapdrm is in active development and the fact that both
implementation (omapfb and omapdrm) is using the same header file
(video/omapdss.h) makes implementing new features or doing bigger clean ups in
omapdrm harder and hared as the change should not break omapfb.

To overcome this issue we need to separate the two implementation. This is the
aim of this series:
Create platform_data header for omapdss,
clean up the header usage and dependencies,
new header file for omapfb stack (video/omapfb_dss.h)
local omapdss.h header file for omapdrm.
Tony, can you have a look at the arch/arm parts here and give your ack
if they're fine? They should be quite small and display specific, so I
don't see much chance for conflict there.

 Tomi
