A call to drm_simple_encoder_init() initializes an encoder without
further functionality. It only provides the destroy callback to
cleanup the encoder's state. Only few drivers implement more
sophisticated encoders than that. Most drivers implement such a
simple encoder and can use drm_simple_encoder_init() instead.

The patchset converts drivers where the encoder's instance is
embedded in a larger data structure. The driver releases the
memory during cleanup. Each patch replaces drm_encoder_init() with
drm_simple_encoder_init() and removes the (now unused) driver's
encoder functions.

While the patchset is fairly large, the indiviual patches are self-
contained and can be merged independently from each other. The
simple-encoder functionality is currently in drm-misc-next, where
these patches could go as well.

Future directions: There's another common case where the driver
calls kzalloc() plus drm_encoder_init(). Such drivers are not
handled by this patchset. The plan here is to use a simple encoder
with either managed memory allocation (once it's merged), or embed
the encoder in a larger data structure and drop kzalloc() entirely.

The patchset has been compile-tested on x86-64, aarch64 and arm.
