Nouveau - May 2016 - [PATCH v4] vga_switcheroo: Add helper for deferred probing

So far we've got one condition when DRM drivers need to defer probing
on a dual GPU system and it's coded separately into each of the relevant
drivers. As suggested by Daniel Vetter, deduplicate that code in the
drivers and move it to a new vga_switcheroo helper. This yields better
encapsulation of concepts and lets us add further checks in a central
place. (The existing check pertains to pre-retina MacBook Pros and an
additional check is expected to be needed for retinas.)

v2: This helper could eventually be used by audio clients as well,
    so rephrase kerneldoc to refer to "client" instead of
"GPU"
    and move the single existing check in an if block specific
    to PCI_CLASS_DISPLAY_VGA devices. Move documentation on
    that check from kerneldoc to a comment. (Daniel Vetter)

v3: Mandate in kerneldoc that registration of client shall only
    happen after calling this helper. (Daniel Vetter)

v4: Rebase on 412c8f7de011 ("drm/radeon: Return -EPROBE_DEFER when
    amdkfd not loaded")

Not sure if we want/need this, yet at least. This changes behaviour
which is not what refactoring patches should be doing, right ? if
needed it ought to be a separate patch, imho.

Furthermore on nouveau and AMD (iirc) front, some dual-gpu/optimus
systems use PCI_CLASS_DISPLAY_3D. So if we add DISPLAY_VGA perhaps we
should also check for DISPLAY_3D ?

Emil

Well, the commit message doesn't claim "no functional change",
does it?

Daniel Vetter explicitly wanted the ability to use the helper in
vga_switcheroo audio clients, and those shouldn't run the apple-gmux
test. I think it makes sense to enclose it in the above-quoted if-block
*now* even though it's not needed. Once someone adds a check for an
audio client, chances are they'll forget to add this if-block.

Fair enough, I've changed it to match PCI_BASE_CLASS_DISPLAY
and sent it out as v5 a few minutes ago.

Thanks,

Lukas
