This patch series rework DIU support patch submitted
previously with the patch series for updating MPC5121
support in mainline. It doesn't add new panel timing data
to the framebuffer driver anymore. Instead we now allow
encoding this data in the device tree. First two patches
add this support.

The third patch for DIU support is rebased, but still
depends on patches for adding MPC5121 USB support (because
it touches shared platform code).

It is intended for inclusion in 2.6.34, since without
DIU support patch framebuffer doesn't work on mpc5121.

Thanks for this work.  I've made specific comments on the individual
patches.  There are some details to be worked out, but I think it is
moving in the right direction.

It's actually late for 2.6.34.  Unless it is a bug fix, I stop picking
up new patches somewhere in the -rc7 or -rc8 timerframe, and I am
definitely in bug-fix-only mode once the merge window has opened.  I
do this to ensure all patches receive a decent amount of linux-next
exposure before I ask Linus to pull them.

I'll being picking up new patches for 2.6.35 into my -next branch
after 2.6.34-rc1 is released.
