Subject: [PATCH 3/3] drm: Allow simpledrm to setup its emulated FB as firmware provided

Indicate to fbdev subsystem that the registered framebuffer is provided by
the system firmware, so that it can handle accordingly. For example, would
unregister the FB devices if asked to remove the conflicting framebuffers.

Add a new DRM_FB_FW field to drm_fbdev_generic_setup() options parameter.
Drivers can use this to indicate the FB helper initialization that the FB
registered is provided by the firmware, so it can be configured as such.
