[RFC,0/3] Add display sharing support in tidss

Message

This adds display sharing support in tidss display driver along with an
example overlay devicetree file using which can be used to enable display
sharing on AM62x devices with device manager core i.e. R5F expected to run
a custom firmware which supports corresponding display sharing
configuration.

As resources can be partitioned at different levels a flexible scheme is
followed while designing devicetree bindings and driver changes keeping in
mind possible scenarios in which resources can be partitioned and various
DSS hardware IP's supported across different devices.

A rebased version of this patch has been tested on AM62P SoC which also
supports same DSS IP as AM62x and the patch with display sharing
functionality is already available in vendor-specific kernel source tree
[1] along with documentation which explains the design [2] and DM firmware
support [3].

NOTE1: This is marked as RFC for upstream since AM62P is not yet supported
in upstream tree and for AM62x SoC which is the target SoC for this patch,
the dss sharing functionality is not validated on upstream tree due to
missing OLDI support and display sharing DM firmware support, but we still
wanted to get some feedback on this.
