    Implement auto-update mode for manual-update displays. omapfb driver
    uses a delayed work to update the display with a constant rate.
    
    The update mode can be changed via OMAPFB_SET_UPDATE_MODE ioctl, which
    previously called omapdss but is now handled inside omapfb, and a new
    sysfs file, "update_mode".
    
    The update interval is by default 20 times per second, but can be
    changed via "auto_update_freq" module parameter. There is also a new
    module parameter "auto_update", which will make omapfb start manual
    update displays in auto-update mode.
    
    This auto-update mode can be used for testing if the userspace does not
    support manual update displays properly. However, it is a very
    inefficient solution, and should be considered more as a hack for
    testing than something that could be used as a long term solution.
