Initialize the instance of struct fb_ops with fbdev initializer
macros for framebuffers in virtual address space. Set the read/write,
draw and mmap callbacks to the correct implementation and avoid
implicit defaults. Also select the necessary helpers in Kconfig.

Fbdev drivers sometimes rely on the callbacks being NULL for a
default I/O-memory-based implementation to be invoked; hence
requiring the I/O helpers to be built in any case. Setting all
callbacks in all drivers explicitly will allow to make the I/O
helpers optional. This benefits systems that do not use these
functions.

<content type='text'>
The device property API allows drivers to gather device resources from
different sources, such as ACPI, and lift the dependency on Device Tree.
Convert the driver to unleash the power of the device property API.

<id>urn:sha1:c223d9c636ed55ba8abaa94be329f92fe43d522d</id>
<content type='text'>
Instantiate a single LED based on the "led" subnode in DT.
This allows the user to control display brightness and blinking (backed
by hardware support) through the LED class API and triggers, and exposes
the display color.  The LED will be named
"auxdisplay:&lt;color&gt;:&lt;function&gt;".

When running in dot-matrix mode and if no "led" subnode is found, the
driver falls back to the traditional backlight mode, to preserve
backwards compatibility.

The Holtek HT16K33 LED controller is not only used for driving
dot-matrix displays, but also for driving segment displays.

Add support for 4-digit 7-segment and quad 14-segment alphanumeric
displays, like the Adafruit 7-segment and 14-segment display backpack
and FeatherWing expansion boards.  Use the character line display core
support to display a message, which will be scrolled if it doesn't fit.

<content type='text'>
Extract the character line display core support from the simple ASCII
LCD driver for the MIPS Boston, Malta &amp; SEAD3 development boards into
its own subdriver, so it can be reused for other displays.

As this moves the "message" device attribute in sysfs in a "linedisp.N"
subdirectory, a symlink is added to preserve backwards compatibility.

A second CHARLCD config symbol was added instead of moving the existing
one.  Fix this by removing the old one.

<title>auxdisplay: hd44780_common: Fix build error</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ffdf726db7fb02a96396dcb8deb7436b4a47dd14</id>
<content type='text'>
When building the hd44780_common driver without a driver that actually
uses it like panel or hd44780 you get a build error, because
hd44780_common uses charlcd, but did not select it. Its users did
select it.

This is fixed now. hd4478_common now selects charlcd in Kconfig and
panel and hd44780 do not. They only select hd44780_common.

engineering as an auxdisplay charlcd device.

<id>urn:sha1:718e05ed92ecac0d9d3954bcc8064527c3ce7565</id>
<content type='text'>
There is some hd44780 specific code in charlcd and this code is used by
multiple drivers. To make charlcd independent from this device specific
code this has to be moved to a place where the multiple drivers can
share their common code. This common place is now introduced as
hd44780_common.
