af9470b26d auxdisplay: charlcd: Do not print chars at end of line
Skip printing characters at the end of a display line. This fits to the
behaviour we already had, that the cursor is nailed to the last position
of a line.
This might slightly change behaviour.
On hd44780 displays with one or two lines the previous implementation
did still write characters to the buffer of the display even if they are
currently not visible. The shift_display command could be used to set
the "viewing window" to a new position in the buffer and then you could
see the characters previously written.
This described behaviour does not work for hd44780 displays with more
than two display lines. There simply is not enough buffer.
So the behaviour was a bit inconsistent across different displays.
The new behaviour is to stop writing characters at the end of a visible
line, even if there would be room in the buffer. This allows us to have
an easy implementation, that should behave equal on all supported
displays. This is not hd44780 hardware dependent anymore.

40c2b72e4b auxdisplay: Change gotoxy calling interface
Change the calling interface for gotoxy from supplying the x and y
coordinates in the charlcd struct to explicitly supplying x and y in
the function arguments. This is more intuitive and allows for moving
the cursor to positions independent from the position saved in the
charlcd struct.

6e49eea358 auxdisplay: charlcd: replace last device specific stuff
These are the last bits left in charlcd.c that are device specific and
they are removed now.
In detail this is:
* bwidth, which is the width of the display buffer per line. This is
  replaced by width of the display.
* hwidth, which is the size of the display buffer as a whole. This is
  replaced by looping all chars of a line by all lines.
* the hd44780_common header include can go away.

2f920c0f0e auxdisplay: charlcd: replace zero-length array with flexible-array member
The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:

struct foo {
        int stuff;
        struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

The x/y command parsing has been broken since commit 129957069e
("staging: panel: Fixed checkpatch warning about simple_strtoul()").

Commit b34050fadb ("auxdisplay: charlcd: Fix and clean up handling of

but also broke things further by removing the check for a complete
command before attempting to parse it.  As a result, parsing is
terminated at the first x or y character.

This reinstates the check for a final semicolon.  Whereas the original
code use strchr(), this is wasteful seeing as the semicolon is always
at the end of the buffer.  Thus check this character directly instead.

1d3b2af213 auxdisplay: charlcd: Add support for displays with more than two lines
On displays with more than two lines, the additional lines are stored in
the buffers used for the first two lines, but beyond the visible parts.
Adjust the DDRAM address calculation to cater for this.

When clearing the display, avoid writing more spaces than the actual
size of the physical buffer.

ac201479cc auxdisplay: charlcd: Add support for 4-bit interfaces
In 4-bit mode, 8-bit commands and data are written using two raw writes
to the data interface: high nibble first, low nibble last.  This must be
handled by the low-level driver.

However, as we don't know in which mode (4-bit or 8-bit) nor 4-bit phase
the LCD was left, initialization must always be handled using raw
writes, and needs to configure the LCD for 8-bit mode first.

39f8ea4672 auxdisplay: charlcd: Extract character LCD core from misc/panel
Extract the character LCD core from the Parallel port LCD/Keypad Panel
driver in the misc subsystem, and convert it into a subdriver in the
auxdisplay subsystem.  This allows the character LCD core to be used by
other drivers later.

Compilation is controlled by its own Kconfig symbol CHARLCD, which is to
be selected by its users, but can be enabled manually for
compile-testing.

All functions changed their prefix from "lcd_" to "charlcd_", and gained
a "struct charlcd *" parameter to operate on a specific instance.
While the driver API thus is ready to support multiple instances, the
current limitation of a single display (/dev/lcd has a single misc minor
assigned) is retained.

No functional changes intended.
