Add udmabuf misc device
A driver to let userspace turn memfd regions into dma-bufs. Use case: Allows qemu create dmabufs for the vga framebuffer or virtio-gpu ressources. Then they can be passed around to display those guest things on the host. To spice client for classic full framebuffer display, and hopefully some day to wayland server for seamless guest window display. qemu test branch: https://git.kraxel.org/cgit/qemu/log/?h=sirius/udmabuf Cc: David Airlie <airlied@linux.ie> Cc: Tomeu Vizoso <tomeu.vizoso@collabora.com> Cc: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@ideasonboard.com> Cc: Daniel Vetter <daniel@ffwll.ch> Signed-off-by: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com> Acked-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Link: http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20180827093444.23623-1-kraxel@redhat.com
