drm/xe: Don't hand out the flat CCS storage as usable VRAM
get_flat_ccs_offset() reads the base of the flat CCS storage from the
hardware, scales it by the number of enabled L3 nodes, and rounds the
result up to 128K. Everything below that offset is then handed to the
VRAM allocator as usable memory.
Rounding a limit that means "usable memory ends here" upwards publishes
whatever lies between the real base and the rounded one as free memory,
and that memory belongs to the compression hardware. The scaled value
has no reason to be 128K aligned, and on a Battlemage G21 with 16 GiB it
is not:
flat CCS base: raw 0x3fafff800, rounded 0x3fb000000
so the last 2 KiB of page 0x3fafff000 is CCS storage, in the allocator's
pool. Whatever is allocated there gets that tail overwritten by the
compression hardware, which needs no page-table entry, no buffer object
and no GPU submission to do it, and does it before userspace exists.

fbdev: atafb: Add support for SuperVidel's SuperBlitter
The SuperVidel graphics FPGA includes a hardware blitter (bit block
transfer engine) operating within the SuperVidel DDR2 video RAM.
Two versions of this blitter exist. Later versions (>= 9) of the
SuperVidel firmware support an asynchronous command FIFO, older
versions must be polled for command completion.
Add hardware-accelerated copyarea, fillrect and imageblit fb
operations (falling back to the non-accelerated versions for
anything that exceeds blitter capabilities).

fbdev: atafb: Give atafb proper parent
The atafb fb device registers no parent, causing a missing symlink
(/sys/class/graphics/fb0/device). Xorg fbdevhw driver looks for that
symlink when scanning for devices, so add a parent node for atafb.
The proper way to do that is use of framebuffer_alloc(), which
requries refactoring atafb to move from static fb_info to allocation
of fb_info by framebuffer_alloc().
About the only location where a fb_info pointer cannot be passed
is monspec setup in atafb_setup(). Store static monspecs there
and copy into place after framebuffer_alloc().
Pass fb_info everywhere it's needed (detect, decode_var and
do_fb_set_var functions), and remove the static fb_info struct.
