Add the initial nova-drm driver skeleton.
nova-drm is connected to nova-core through the auxiliary bus and
implements the DRM parts of the nova driver stack.
For now, it implements the fundamental DRM abstractions, i.e. creates a
DRM device and registers it, exposing a three sample IOCTLs.
DRM_IOCTL_NOVA_GETPARAM
- provides the PCI bar size from the bar that maps the GPUs VRAM
from nova-core
DRM_IOCTL_NOVA_GEM_CREATE
- creates a new dummy DRM GEM object and returns a handle
DRM_IOCTL_NOVA_GEM_INFO
- provides metadata for the DRM GEM object behind a given handle
I implemented a small userspace test suite [1] that utilizes this
interface.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
