viafb: add X server compatibility mode

Browse source 
This patch adds a config option to be compatible with X servers like
OpenChrome. This is required as for example the X server does not
handle things like disabled IGAs/PLLs resulting in a potential
freeze on X startup. With this option disabled we can provide some
nice features like power management and not reinitializing the
hardware on every mode switch (taking long time, causing flickering).

help
This option reduces the functionality (power saving, ...) of the
framebuffer to avoid negative impact on the OpenChrome X server.
If you use any X server other than fbdev you should enable this
otherwise it should be safe to disable it and allow using all
features.
