DRM 5.18 backport dependencies

Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2072020

So as discussed on kernel-info I am trying to split the drm backport into two bits:

  1. getting dependencies and treewide changes in
  2. the actual drm backport.

The main idea here is to identify what is acceptable to pull in and what is not. If subsystem maintainers are not happy with certain commits I can drop them and work around when doing the actual DRM backport. But with all those changes most conflicts were due to CVE fixes or other things which landed earlier and made the DRM backport itself quite trivial.

The biggest changes in this MR are the following:

Part of this MR are all identified commits which won't be part of the drm mega commits.

Draft MR for the actual backport: !717 (merged)
