This series adds support for the Tegra2x's display peripheral. This
supports the LCD display on Seaboard and we use this to enable console
output in U-Boot on the LCD.

Configuration is via the device tree. Proposed bindings are included
in this series.

I looked at the message "[RFC 4/4] drm: Add NVIDIA Tegra support" on
device-tree-discuss. There does not seem to be any conclusion for now.

While I agree EDID is convenient for machines I would prefer to provide
a user-friendly way of selecting LCD settings as well, with EDID more
as a fallback and auto-detection when available.

To improve performance two optimisations are offered:

1. The LCD frame buffer is cached, with the cache being flushed after
each newline sent to putc(), and in a few other situations. This
dramatically increases performance (around 10x). This requires a few
additions to the ARM cache support.

2. The console supports scrolling in steps of more than 1 line. This
speeds up scrolling output considerably, particularly commands like
'printenv' which display a lot of output. This requires a new CONFIG
and a change to the console_scrollup() function.

Changes in v2:
- Add new patch to use const in pinmux_config_pingroup/table()
- Add nvidia prefix to device tree properties
- Align tegra display using new CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT feature
- Put the LCD cache flush logic into lcd_putc() instead of lcd_puts()
- Update LCD driver to deal with new fdt bindings
- Update seaboard LCD definitions for new fdt binding
- Use a more generic config CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT for lcd alignment
- Use const where possible in funcmux
