[SRU] [Unstable] [5.8] [PATCH 00/15] Fix mgag200 under Wayland

[Kai-Heng Feng]

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1886140

[Impact] 
mgag200 doesn't work under Wayland. Hence GDM doesn't work unless
Wayland is disabled.

[Fix]
Convert the mgag200 driver to use atomic modesetting.

[Test]
User reported positive result with this backport.

[Regression Potential]
Medium. There's already a performance regression [1] introduced by the
patch set. However, the mgag200 devices are mainly used for server, so
the glx regression is acceptable. Or the desktop just doesn't work under
wayland at all.

The patch is currently in -next, so it will land to v5.9.

Tried to backport the series to v5.4 but the DRM change between v5.4 and
-next is massive, so I tried to backport to v5.6 OEM kernel instead.
There are some DRM change are still missing from v5.6, one of them
mgag200 facilitates is managed DRM helpers (like devm_*()). I tried to
modified the driver to use non-managed DRM helpers, but it's still not
enough to make it work.

So target Groovy here so we can have some nice early testings.
