drm: Add dirty ioctl and property
This commit adds a ioctl and property to allow userspace to notify the kernel that a framebuffer has changed. Instead of snooping the command stream this allows finer grained tracking of which areas have changed. The primary user for this functionality is virtual hardware like the vmware svga device, but also Xen hardware likes to be notify. There is also real hardware like DisplayLink and DisplayPort that might take advantage of this ioctl.
