fbdev: Move I/O read and write code into helper functions
Move the existing I/O read and write code for I/O memory into the new helpers fb_cfb_read() and fb_cfb_write(). Make them the default fp_ops. No functional changes. In the near term, the new functions will be useful to the DRM subsystem, which currently provides it's own implementation. It can then use the shared code. In the longer term, it might make sense to revise the I/O helper's default status and make them opt-in by the driver. Systems that don't use them would not contain the code any longer. v2: * add detailed commit message (Javier) * rename fb_cfb_() to fb_io_() (Geert) * add fixes that got lost while moving the code (Geert) Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Tested-by: Sui Jingfeng <suijingfeng@loongson.cn> Reviewed-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <javierm@redhat.com> Acked-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> Reviewed-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20230428122452.4856-19-tzimmermann@suse.de
