If the user-space does not support aspect-ratio, and requests for a
modeset with mode having aspect ratio bits set, then the given
user-mode must be rejected. Secondly, while preparing a user-mode from
kernel mode, the aspect-ratio info must not be given, if aspect-ratio
is not supported by the user.
This patch:
1. rejects the modes with aspect-ratio info, during modeset, if the
user does not support aspect ratio.
2. does not load the aspect-ratio info in user-mode structure, if
aspect ratio is not supported.
3. adds helper functions for determining if aspect-ratio is expected
in user-mode and for allowing/disallowing the aspect-ratio, if its
not expected.

V3: Addressed review comments from Ville:
Do not corrupt the current crtc state by updating aspect-ratio on
the fly.
V4: rebase
V5: As suggested by Ville, rejected the modeset calls for modes with
aspect ratio, if the user does not set aspect-ratio cap.
V6: Used the helper functions for determining if aspect-ratio is
expected in the user-mode.
V7: rebase
V8: rebase
V9: rebase
V10: Modified the commit-message
V11: rebase
V12: Merged the patch for adding aspect-ratio helper functions
with this patch.
V13: Minor modifications as suggested by Ville.
V14: Removed helper functions, as they were used only once in legacy
modeset path, as suggested by Daniel Vetter.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
