Subject: [PATCH 47/60] drm/hx8357d: Add support for the nomodeset kernel parameter

According to disable Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt, this
parameter can be used to disable kernel modesetting.

DRM drivers will not perform display-mode changes or accelerated rendering
and only the systewm system framebuffer will be available if it was set-up.

But only a few DRM drivers currently check for nomodeset, make this driver
to also support the command line parameter.
