Subject: [RFC] drm/fb: Propagate physical display dimensions to fbdev

fbdev has a place for the physical width and height of a display. I would
like to have this information available to userspace. This patch works for me,
but I have a strong suspicion that this is not the "right way".

Any suggestions on how to get the proper struct drm_display_info here
rather than assuming the first connector one is valid? I don't see an obvious
way to do this.
