Chris Ruffin 564b687b03 drm/bochs: disable video before changing video mode
qemu and simics simulators both seem to expect that video should be disabled
before changing the video mode.

Gerd Hoffmann 9ecdb039b7 bochs: add endian switching support
Recently (qemu 2.2+) the qemu stdvga got a register to switch the vga
framebuffer endianness.  This patch adds code to explicitly set the
endianness of the framebuffer.  In most cases this has no effect as
the default is guest architecture endianness.  It is needed though in
case a architecture supports both big and little endian, i.e. for
ppc64le.

Gerd Hoffmann 0a6659bdc5 drm/bochs: new driver
DRM driver for (virtual) vga cards using the bochs dispi
interface, such as the qemu standard vga (qemu -vga std).

Don't bother supporting anything but 32bpp for now, even
though the virtual hardware is able to do that.

Known issue: mmap(/dev/fb0) doesn't work.
