Subject: [PATCH V3] drm/vkms: Add support for vkms work without vblank

Currently, vkms only work with enabled VBlank. This patch adds another
operation model that allows vkms to work without VBlank support. In this
scenario, vblank signaling is faked by calling drm_send_vblank_event()
in vkms_crtc_atomic_flush(); this approach works due to the
drm_vblank_get() == 0 checking.

Changes since V2:
 - Rebase

Changes since V1:
  Daniel Vetter:
  - Change module parameter name from disablevblank to virtual_hw
  - Improve parameter description
  - Improve commit message
