I haven't been able to go through this series with time, but looking at
the patches, there were multiple places where I felt quite uneasy with
the changes. It didn't help that many of the patches did not have
descriptions.

So as an RFC series, it's quite nice and shows that the manual update
can be gotten to work. But I'm not ready to apply this until the patches
touching the omapdrm enable, disable and commit sequences are split up
into smaller patches with proper descriptions.

Also, a minor note that rotating the display on N950 will cause tearing.
Probably not a huge issue, though.

Oh, and I also see these.

I made a quick test on my OMAP4 SDP (it has similar panel to N950), and
I did get a picture on the LCD, and kmstest --flip works. It's tearing,
though, and the fps is ~80, so apparently TE signal is not used for
synchronization here. I think nobody is calling the enable_te().
