Some SoC without MMU have display driver where a drm/kms driver
could be implemented.

Before doing such kind of thing drm/kms must allow to use mmuless devices.
This patch propose to remove MMU configuration flag and add a cma helper
function to help implementing mmuless display driver

version 4:
- add documentation about drm_gem_cma_get_unmapped_area()
- stub it MMU case

Shouldn't we also update DRM_FB_HELPER_DEFAULT_OPS? With that addressed
this all looks good to me.

Those changes shouldn't impact fb_ops but only fbdev file_operations
like it is done in fbmem patch

I would add

"It's intended to be used as a direct handler for the :c:type:`struct 
file_operations <file_operations>` .get_unmapped_area() operation."

If' it's kernel-doc you can use shortcuts to autogenerate the links. Only
works with kernel-doc comments though, not with .rst in general:

"It's intended to be used as a direct handler for the struct 
&file_operations .get_unmapped_area() operation."

And +1 from me on sprinkling links all over docs. We might want to do that
for all the fbdev fops, for consistency.
