drm/crtc: Add a generic infrastructure to fake VBLANK events
In some cases CRTCs are active but are not able to generating events, at
least not at every frame at it's expected to.
This is typically the case when the CRTC is feeding a writeback connector
that has no job queued. In this situation the CRTC is usually stopped
until a new job is queued, and this can lead to timeouts when part of
the pipeline is updated but no new jobs are queued to the active
writeback connector.
In order to solve that, we add a ->no_vblank flag to drm_crtc_state
and ask the CRTC drivers to set it to true when they know they're not
able to generate VBLANK events. The core drm_atomic_helper_fake_vblank()
helper can then be used to fake VBLANKs at commit time.
