    drm: add atomic properties · 88a48e29
    Rob Clark authored
    Once a driver is using atomic helpers for modeset, the next step is to
    switch over to atomic properties.  To do this, make sure that any
    modeset objects have their ->atomic_{get,set}_property() vfuncs suitably
    populated if they have custom properties (you did already remember to
    plug in atomic-helper func for the legacy ->set_property() vfuncs,
    right?), and then set DRIVER_ATOMIC bit in driver_features flag.
    
    A new cap is introduced, DRM_CLIENT_CAP_ATOMIC, for the purposes of
    shielding legacy userspace from atomic properties.  Mostly for the
    benefit of legacy DDX drivers that do silly things like getting/setting
    each property at startup (since some of the new atomic properties will
    be able to trigger modeset).
