hw/display: add ramfb, a simple boot framebuffer living in guest ram The boot framebuffer is expected to be configured by the firmware, so it uses fw_cfg as interface. Initialization goes as follows: (1) Check whenever etc/ramfb is present. (2) Allocate framebuffer from RAM. (3) Fill struct RAMFBCfg, write it to etc/ramfb. Done. You can write stuff to the framebuffer now, and it should appear automagically on the screen. Note that this isn't very efficient because it does a full display update on each refresh. No dirty tracking. Dirty tracking would have to be active for the whole ram slot, so that wouldn't be very efficient either. For a boot display which is active for a short time only this isn't a big deal. As permanent guest display something better should be used (if possible). This is the ramfb core code. Some windup is needed for display devices which want have a ramfb boot display.

ramfb: add migration support Implementing RAMFB migration is quite straightforward. One caveat is to treat the whole RAMFBCfg as a blob, since that's what is exposed to the guest directly. This avoid having to fiddle with endianness issues if we were to migrate fields individually as integers. The devices using RAMFB will have to include ramfb_vmstate in their migration description.

Revert "hw/display/ramfb: initialize fw-config space with xres/ yres" This reverts commit f79081b4b71b72640bedd40a7cd76f864c8287f1. Patch has broken byteorder handling: RAMFBCfg fields are in bigendian byteorder, the reset function doesn't care so native byteorder is used instead. Given this went unnoticed so far the feature is obviously unused, so just revert the patch.
