gvt-g support local displays

[Paul Lai]

Feature description: dma-buf is an uniform mechanism to share DMA buffers across different devices and subsystems. dma-buf for intel GVT-g is mainly used to share the vgpu's framebuffer to userspace to leverage userspace graphics stacks to render the framebuffer to the display monitor.
 The main idea is that we create a gem object and set vgpu's framebuffer as its backing storage. Then, export a dma-buf associated with this gem object. With the fd of this dma-buf, userspace can directly handle this buffer.

Applied platform: Skylake, Kabylake

Dependencies: Qemu's support is needed to implement the use cases of local display or remote display via SPICE protocol.

Business value: improve user experience to get local display or remote display of vgpu.

Currently, Gvt-g repo has three branches which have the dma-buf features:
 1) staging branch
 Has GPU hang issue while booting Linux VM which can be solved by patch:
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/intel-gvt-dev/2018-February/003039.html
 2) Q1-release branch (gvt-stable-4.14)
 Still needs more tests.
 3) topic/dmabuf
 This is a branch to show the idea of dma-buf.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
