This is the ABI for the two halves of a para-virtualized
display driver.

This protocol aims to provide a unified protocol which fits more
sophisticated use-cases than a framebuffer device can handle. At the
moment basic functionality is supported with the intention to extend:
  o multiple dynamically allocated/destroyed framebuffers
  o buffers of arbitrary sizes
  o better configuration options including multiple display support

Note: existing fbif can be used together with displif running at the
same time, e.g. on Linux one provides framebuffer and another DRM/KMS

Future extensions to the existing protocol may include:
  o allow display/connector cloning
  o allow allocating objects other than display buffers
  o add planes/overlays support
  o support scaling
  o support rotation

Note, that this protocol doesn't use ring macros for
bi-directional exchange (PV calls/9pfs) bacause:
  o it statically defines the use of a single page
    for the ring buffer
  o it uses direct memory access to ring's contents
    w/o memory copying
  o re-uses the same idea that kbdif/fbif use
    which for this use-case seems to be appropriate

==================================================
Rationale for introducing this protocol instead of
using the existing fbif:
==================================================

1. In/out event sizes
  o fbif - 40 octets
  o displif - 40 octets
This is only the initial version of the displif protocol
which means that there could be requests which will not fit
(WRT introducing some GPU related functionality
later on). In that case we cannot alter fbif sizes as we need to
be backward compatible an will be forced to handle those
apart of fbif.

2. Shared page
Displif doesn't use anything like struct xenfb_page, but
DEFINE_RING_TYPES(xen_displif, struct xendispl_req, struct
xendispl_resp) which is a better and more common way.
Output events use a shared page which only has in_cons and in_prod
and all the rest is used for incoming events. Here struct xenfb_page
could probably be used as is despite the fact that it only has a half
of a page for incoming events which is only 50 events. (consider
something like 60Hz display)

3. Amount of changes.
fbif only provides XENFB_TYPE_UPDATE and XENFB_TYPE_RESIZE
events, so it looks like it is easier to get fb support into displif
than vice versa. displif at the moment has 6 requests and 1 event,
multiple connector support, etc.

+ *
+ * In case of frontend unrecoverable errors backend handles that as
+ * if frontend goes into the XenbusStateClosed state.
+ *
+ * In case of backend unrecoverable errors frontend tries removing
+ * the virtualized device. If this is possible at the moment of error,
+ * then frontend goes into the XenbusStateInitialising state and is ready for
+ * new connection with backend. If the virtualized device is still in use and
+ * cannot be removed, then frontend goes into the XenbusStateReconfiguring state
+ * until either the virtualized device is removed or backend initiates a new
+ * connection. On the virtualized device removal frontend goes into the
+ * XenbusStateInitialising state.
+ *
+ * Note on XenbusStateReconfiguring state of the frontend: if backend has
+ * unrecoverable errors then frontend cannot send requests to the backend
+ * and thus cannot provide functionality of the virtualized device anymore.
+ * After backend is back to normal the virtualized device may still hold some
+ * state: configuration in use, allocated buffers, client application state etc.
+ * In most cases, this will require frontend to implement complex recovery
+ * reconnect logic. Instead, by going into XenbusStateReconfiguring state,
+ * frontend will make sure no new clients of the virtualized device are
+ * accepted, allow existing client(s) to exit gracefully by signaling error
+ * state etc.
+ * Once all the clients are gone frontend can reinitialize the virtualized
+ * device and get into XenbusStateInitialising state again signaling the
+ * backend that a new connection can be made.
+ *
+ * There are multiple conditions possible under which frontend will go from
+ * XenbusStateReconfiguring into XenbusStateInitialising, some of them are OS
+ * specific. For example:
+ * 1. The underlying OS framework may provide callbacks to signal that the last
+ *    client of the virtualized device has gone and the device can be removed
+ * 2. Frontend can schedule a deferred work (timer/tasklet/workqueue)
+ *    to periodically check if this is the right time to re-try removal of
+ *    the virtualized device.
+ * 3. By any other means.
