Dave, Greg,

Comments to this one? I addressed the comments I received so far and am
about to respin this series. Is it ok to put this to staging? If yes,
should I move the whole stuff into drivers/staging/ or should it stay
in drivers/gpu/drm with just a Kconfig dependency on STAGING?

Thanks
 Sascha
