Display core documentation is not well organized, and it is hard to find
information due to the lack of sections. This commit reorganizes the
documentation layout, and it is preparation work for future changes.

Changes since V1:
- Christian: Group amdgpu documentation together.
- Daniel: Drop redundant amdgpu prefix.
- Jani: Create index pages.
- Yann: Mirror display folder in the documentation.

<title>drm/mcde: Add new driver for ST-Ericsson MCDE</title>

<id>5fc537bfd00033a3f813330175f7f12c25957ebf</id>
<content type='text'>
This adds a new DRM driver for the ST-Ericsson Multi Channel
Display Engine, MCDE display controller.

This hardware has three independent DSI hosts and can composit
and display several memory buffers onto an LCD display. It
was developed for several years inside of ST-Ericsson and
shipped with a few million mobile phones from Sony and Samsung,
as well as with the Snowball community development board.

The driver is currently pretty rudimentary but supports a
simple framebuffer so we can get penguins and graphics when
using these SoCs.

AFBC is a flexible, proprietary, lossless compression protocol and
format, with a number of defined DRM format modifiers. To facilitate
consistency and compatibility between different AFBC producers and
consumers, document the expectations for usage of the AFBC DRM format
modifiers in a new .rst chapter.

<id>b8592b48450b99d2b598bea6ae0ccac16ea429de</id>
<content type='text'>
[Why]
Documentation is helpful for the community to understand our code.
This change does some high-level documentation of some DM interfaces
with DRM, and the amdgpu base driver.

[How]
An entry for AMDgpu DC has been added to Documentation/gpu/drivers.rst
TOC. amdgpu-dc.rst is created to pull in inline doc-strings, which:
- Provides an overview for "What is DM?"
- Documents AMDgpu DM lifecyle
- Documents IRQ management
- Documents atomic_check and commit_tail interfaces

<title>drm/v3d: Introduce a new DRM driver for Broadcom V3D V3.x+</title>

<id>57692c94dcbe99a1e0444409a3da13fb3443562c</id>
<content type='text'>
This driver will be used to support Mesa on the Broadcom 7268 and 7278
platforms.

V3D 3.3 introduces an MMU, which means we no longer need CMA or vc4's
complicated CL/shader validation scheme.  This massively changes the
GEM behavior, so I've forked off to a new driver.

v2: Mark SUBMIT_CL as needing DRM_AUTH.  coccinelle fixes from kbuild
    test robot. Drop personal git link from MAINTAINERS.  Don't
    double-map dma-buf imported BOs.  Add kerneldoc about needing MMU
    eviction.  Drop prime vmap/unmap stubs.  Delay mmap offset setup
    to mmap time.  Use drm_dev_init instead of _alloc.  Use
    ktime_get() for wait_bo timeouts.  Drop drm_can_sleep() usage,
    since we don't modeset.  Switch page tables back to WC (debug
    change to coherent had slipped in).  Switch
    drm_gem_object_unreference_unlocked() to
    drm_gem_object_put_unlocked().  Simplify overflow mem handling by
    not sharing overflow mem between jobs.
v3: no changes
v4: align submit_cl to 64 bits (review by airlied), check zero flags in
    other ioctls.
