[PATCH v2 0/3] video: s3c-fb: Rearrange the elements in platform data

Changes since v1:
- Includes all changes suggested by Jingoo Han.
- Reworked s3c-fb platform data in all Samsung SoC based board files.

This patchset rearranges the elements in the platform data of the s3c-fb
driver with the intent of adding device tree support to the driver in
subsequent patches.

The first patch moves the video timing information from the individual window
setup data into the platform specific configuration section in the platform
data. The video timing is independent of the window setup. The resolution of
the window could be smaller than that of the lcd panel attached. So the video
timing data is removed from window configuration data.

The second patch removes the need for the 'default_win' element in the
platform data. This element was used to decide whether the video data
output from the controller should be enabled or disabled when the window
specified by 'default_win' is enabled or disabled. With the first patch
removing the need for atleast one window to be of the same resolution as
that of the lcd panel, it is now possible to decide when to enable/disable
the video data output based on the state of each window. If any of the
window is active, the lcd data output is enabled. Otherwise, the lcd data
output is disabled. Hence, the 'default_win' parameter from the platform
data can be removed, which anyways cannot be specified when using
device tree.

For all the Samsung SoC based boards, the third patch reworks the platform
data of the display controller based on the changes introduced in the first
two patches.

This patch series is based on
http://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kgene/linux-samsung.git [for-next]

with all patches merged from
https://github.com/schandinat/linux-2.6.git [fbdev-next]

and tested one Exynos4210 based Origen board (only compile tested for
other boards)
