Hi all:

This patch set introduces the Loongson-2K BMC.

It is a PCIe device present on servers similar to the Loongson-3C6000.
And it is a multifunctional device (MFD), such as display as a sub-function
of it.

For IPMI, according to the existing design, we use software simulation to
implement the KCS interface registers: Stauts/Command/Data_Out/Data_In.

Also since both host side and BMC side read and write kcs status, we use
fifo pointer to ensure data consistency.

For the display, based on simpledrm, the resolution is read from a fixed
position in the BMC since the hardware does not support auto-detection
of the resolution. Of course, we will try to support multiple
resolutions later, through a vbios-like approach.

Especially, for the BMC reset function, since the display will be
disconnected when BMC reset, we made a special treatment of re-push.

Based on this, I will present it in four patches:
patch-1: BMC device PCI resource allocation.
patch-2: IPMI implementation
patch-3: BMC reset function support

Thanks.

V2:
- Drop ls2kdrm, use simpledrm instead.
Patch (1/3):
 - Use DEFINE_RES_MEM_NAMED/MFD_CELL_RES simplified code;
 - Add resolution fetching due to replacing the original display
   solution with simpledrm; 
 - Add aperture_remove_conflicting_devices() to avoid efifb
   conflict with simpledrm.
Patch (3/3):
 - This part of the function, moved from the original ls2kdrm to mfd;
 - Use set_console to implement the Re-push display function.
