Thomas Zimmermann adb9d5a2cc drm/dp: Move DisplayPort helpers into separate helper module
Move DisplayPort functions into a separate module to reduce the size
of the KMS helpers. Select DRM_DP_HELPER for all users of the code. To
avoid naming conflicts, rename drm_dp_helper.c to drm_dp.c

This change can help to reduce the size of the kernel binary. Some
numbers from a x86-64 test build:

Before:
	drm_kms_helper.ko:	447480 bytes

After:
	drm_dp_helper.ko:	216632 bytes
	drm_kms_helper.ko:	239424 bytes

For early-boot graphics, generic DRM drivers, such as simpledrm,
require DRM KMS helpers to be built into the kernel. Generic helper
functions for DisplayPort take up a significant portion of DRM KMS
helper library. These functions are not used by generic drivers and
can be loaded as a module.

v3:
	* fix include statement in DRM selftests
v2:
	* move DP helper code into dp/ (Jani)

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
