bcm2708_fb: DMA acceleration for fb_copyarea
Based on http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?p=62425#p62425
Also used Simon's dmaer_master module as a reference for tweaking DMA
settings for better performance.
For now busylooping only. IRQ support might be added later.
With non-overclocked Raspberry Pi, the performance is ~360 MB/s
for simple copy or ~260 MB/s for two-pass copy (used when dragging
windows to the right).
In the case of using DMA channel 0, the performance improves
to ~440 MB/s.
For comparison, VFP optimized CPU copy can only do ~114 MB/s in
the same conditions (hindered by reading uncached source buffer).

bcm2708_fb: report number of dma copies
Add a counter (exported via debugfs) reporting the
number of dma copies that the framebuffer driver
has done, in order to help evaluate different
optimization strategies.

bcm2708_fb: use IRQ for DMA copies
The copyarea ioctl() uses DMA to speed things along. This
was busy-waiting for completion. This change supports using
an interrupt instead for larger transfers. For small
transfers, busy-waiting is still likely to be faster.

video: fbdev: bcm2708_fb: Don't panic on error
No need to panic the kernel if the video driver fails.
Just print a message and return an error.

fbdev: bcm2708_fb: Add ARCH_BCM2835 support
Add Device Tree support.
Pass the device to dma_alloc_coherent() in order to get the
correct bus address on ARCH_BCM2835.
Use the new DMA legacy API header file.
Including <mach/platform.h> is not necessary.

BCM270x_DT: Add bcm2708-fb device

platform device when booting in DT mode.

Cleanup of bcm2708_fb file to kernel coding standards
Some minor change to function - remove a use of
in_atomic, plus replacing various debug messages
that manually specify the function name with
("%s",.__func__)
