[Nouveau] [PATCH v2 2/2] drm: Move nomodeset kernel parameter to the DRM subsystem

The "nomodeset" kernel cmdline parameter is handled by the vgacon
driver
but the exported vgacon_text_force() symbol is only used by DRM drivers.

It makes much more sense for the parameter logic to be in the subsystem
of the drivers that are making use of it.

Let's move the vgacon_text_force() function and related logic to the DRM
subsystem. While doing that, rename the function to drm_check_modeset()
which better reflects what the function is really used to test for.

Suggested-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter at ffwll.ch>
Signed-off-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <javierm at redhat.com>
---

Changes in v2:
- Conditionally build drm_nomodeset.o if CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE is set.
- Squash patches to move nomodeset logic to DRM and do the renaming.
- Name the function drm_check_modeset() and make it return -ENODEV.

This now depends on the VGA textmode console. Even if you have no VGA 
console, you'd want drm_nomodeset.o. Simpledrm might be built-in and can 
provide graphics. Non-PC systems don't even have a VGA device.

I think we really want a separate boolean config option that gets 
selected by CONFIG_DRM.

I'd update this text to be less sensational.

This is indeed quite sensational. But think we can do it as a follow-up patch.

Since we will have to stick with nomodeset for backward compatibility, I was
planning to add documentation to explain what this parameter is about and what
is the actual effect of setting it.

So I think we can change this as a part of that patch-set.

Yes, I forgot to move these when changed the order of the patches.
