drm/doc: Polish docs for drm_property&drm_property_blob

Browse Source 
- remove kerneldoc for drm-internal functions
- drm_property_replace_global_blob isn't actually atomic, and doesn't
  need to be. Update docs&comments to match
- document all the types and try to link things a bit better
- nits all over

KMS Properties
==============
Drivers may need to expose additional parameters to applications than
those described in the previous sections. KMS supports attaching
properties to CRTCs, connectors and planes and offers a userspace API to
list, get and set the property values.
Properties are identified by a name that uniquely defines the property
purpose, and store an associated value. For all property types except
blob properties the value is a 64-bit unsigned integer.
KMS differentiates between properties and property instances. Drivers
first create properties and then create and associate individual
instances of those properties to objects. A property can be instantiated
multiple times and associated with different objects. Values are stored
in property instances, and all other property information are stored in
the property and shared between all instances of the property.
Every property is created with a type that influences how the KMS core
handles the property. Supported property types are
DRM_MODE_PROP_RANGE
Range properties report their minimum and maximum admissible values.
The KMS core verifies that values set by application fit in that
range.
DRM_MODE_PROP_ENUM
Enumerated properties take a numerical value that ranges from 0 to
the number of enumerated values defined by the property minus one,
and associate a free-formed string name to each value. Applications
can retrieve the list of defined value-name pairs and use the
numerical value to get and set property instance values.
DRM_MODE_PROP_BITMASK
Bitmask properties are enumeration properties that additionally
restrict all enumerated values to the 0..63 range. Bitmask property
instance values combine one or more of the enumerated bits defined
by the property.
DRM_MODE_PROP_BLOB
Blob properties store a binary blob without any format restriction.
The binary blobs are created as KMS standalone objects, and blob
property instance values store the ID of their associated blob
object.
Blob properties are only used for the connector EDID property and
cannot be created by drivers.
To create a property drivers call one of the following functions
depending on the property type. All property creation functions take
property flags and name, as well as type-specific arguments.
- struct drm_property \*drm_property_create_range(struct
drm_device \*dev, int flags, const char \*name, uint64_t min,
uint64_t max);
Create a range property with the given minimum and maximum values.
- struct drm_property \*drm_property_create_enum(struct drm_device
\*dev, int flags, const char \*name, const struct
drm_prop_enum_list \*props, int num_values);
Create an enumerated property. The ``props`` argument points to an
array of ``num_values`` value-name pairs.
- struct drm_property \*drm_property_create_bitmask(struct
drm_device \*dev, int flags, const char \*name, const struct
drm_prop_enum_list \*props, int num_values);
Create a bitmask property. The ``props`` argument points to an array
of ``num_values`` value-name pairs.
Properties can additionally be created as immutable, in which case they
will be read-only for applications but can be modified by the driver. To
create an immutable property drivers must set the
DRM_MODE_PROP_IMMUTABLE flag at property creation time.
When no array of value-name pairs is readily available at property
creation time for enumerated or range properties, drivers can create the
property using the :c:func:`drm_property_create()` function and
manually add enumeration value-name pairs by calling the
:c:func:`drm_property_add_enum()` function. Care must be taken to
properly specify the property type through the ``flags`` argument.
After creating properties drivers can attach property instances to CRTC,
connector and plane objects by calling the
:c:func:`drm_object_attach_property()`. The function takes a
pointer to the target object, a pointer to the previously created
property and an initial instance value.

/**
* DOC: overview
*
* Properties as represented by &drm_property are used to extend the modeset
* interface exposed to userspace. For the atomic modeset IOCTL properties are
* even the only way to transport metadata about the desired new modeset
* configuration from userspace to the kernel. Properties have a well-defined
* value range, which is enforced by the drm core. See the documentation of the
* flags member of struct &drm_property for an overview of the different
* property types and ranges.
*
* Properties don't store the current value directly, but need to be
* instatiated by attaching them to a &drm_mode_object with
* drm_object_attach_property().
*
* Property values are only 64bit. To support bigger piles of data (like gamma
* tables, color correction matrizes or large structures) a property can instead
* point at a &drm_property_blob with that additional data
*
* Properties are defined by their symbolic name, userspace must keep a
* per-object mapping from those names to the property ID used in the atomic
* IOCTL and in the get/set property IOCTL.
