For simple drm drivers (this looks like it would be a simple one), I
don't think there's any need for libdrm support. The generic DRM
interfaces should be enough, so just kernel level coding needed.

There's DRM documentation here:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/htmldocs/drm/index.html

And many existing drivers to use as examples. The dri-devel list
(http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel), which is the
mailing list used for DRM development, is active and you probably can
get more support from there than from the fbdev list.

It should not be a huge effort to write a drm driver for a simple LCD
controller like this. I would bet that you can write a working driver in
a week.

I'm sorry but "it was delayed for internal reasons" and "our customer
needs this driver" are not very good reasons for getting a driver merged
to mainline Linux.

You can provide your driver to your customer as a separate patch series
which they can apply. There should be no conflicts or other issues
there, so it should be simple.
