Add support to convert XR24 and 8-bit grayscale to reversed monochrome for
drivers that control monochromatic panels, that only have 1 bit per pixel.

The drm_fb_gray8_to_mono_reversed() helper was based on the function that
does the same in the drivers/gpu/drm/tiny/repaper.c driver.

Changes in v3:
- Also add a drm_fb_xrgb8888_to_mono_reversed() helper (Thomas Zimmermann)
- Split lines copy to drm_fb_gray8_to_mono_reversed_line() (Thomas Zimmermann)
- Handle case where the source buffer is not aligned to 8 (Thomas Zimmermann)

end_offset should be called end_len, because it is the number of bits in
the final byte; but not the offset of the final bit.

Do you really need that function. It's not exported and if it's not 
otherwise used, I'd just remove it.  We don't keep unused interfaces around.

I'd do a warn_once if (dst_pitch % 8 != 0).

I once had a patchset that adds caching information to struct 
dma_buf_map (soon to be named struct iosys_map).  Blitting helpers would 
be able to enable/disable this optimization as needed.

However, your driver doesn't use CMA. It's backed by SHMEM. Do you 
really want to keep that code in?

If might be faster to allocate both buffers in one step and set the 
pointers into the allocated buffer.

end_len, again. If you have 1 single bit set in the final byte, the
offset is 0, but the length is 1.

At the end after your suggestion of doing line-per-line conversions it is not
needed, but since I already typed it and we were talking about adding other
formats besides the fake XRGB8888 as an optimization (R8 for grayscale and
Dx or something like that for reversed mono), I thought that would be useful
to have it as a helper.

Also other drivers that want to advertise a R8 format could just use it and
not having to add their own helper. But I'm happy to drop it in v4 if you
think that's better to not have unused helpers. 

It could be taken from this patch-set anyways if someone wants to wire the
needed support for R8.

Agreed. I'll add a warning an mention that will be rounded up.

It doesn't but the repaper does. And since the plan was to make that driver
to use the helper instead of having their own, I wanted to also make sure
that would work well with CMA.

Not sure I got this. Do you mean to have a single buffer with length
linepixels + len_src32 and point src32 and gray8 to the same buffer ?

I think, policy is to not keep unused code around.

That's the idea. I don't know the exact overhead for kalloc(), but at 
least the in userspace, malloc() in hot code paths is not a good idea. 
There's usually some searching for free space involved.

In the long term, we could add a field in struct drm_framebuffer to keep 
such buffers around for reuse.

Ok, I'll drop it then. We can include it again when adding R8 formats.

Sure, let's do it in one allocation then and I'll add some comments to
make easier for people to follow the code.
