Can be set for debugging, valgrind, board bringup etc.
Also - we fail reading the sysfs vsync, we fall back and fake it.

Read can return fail when the panel is off.
When read fails do not exit from the vsync thread,
continue with the vsync signal, as later there will
be correct vsync event from the driver

(cherry picked from commit ef93ede83eba15252a5e902981c491bf8ed228cc)
Earlier, the sysfs node was created in the driver for the
first time in dsi_video_on. This has now been moved to probe
so this node can be opened to the start of the thread.

We are seeing errors where a device's hwcVsyncThread is not present for some
reason. The surface flinger has not crashed, so either the thread never got
created, or it exited withouth throwing an error. This patch adds some more
verbose on-error logging to the HWC as an attempt to verify the theory that the
thread does not get created, or fails in pthread_create. While we're at it, we
add the same logging at pthread_create() for hwcUeventThread, as well.
Also, replace the lseek()+read() with a pread() combo in the vsync thread.

-- numHwLayers==1 means that there is only the FB_TARGET which HWC shouldn't
draw. Also check for blank in set. Checking for this in prepare prevents us
from acquiring pipes.
-- add null check for private handle
-- print out vsync timestamp data on error

* Read sysfs entries to get vsync timestamp from kernel.
* External display continues to use uevents for hotplug events
* A new thread, vsyncThread is created to read and send vsync
timestamps to HAL.
* Disable H/W VSYNC for MDP 5.x targets until kernel changes are
complete.
* Synchronization is needed to make sure read() is not called
by hwcVsyncThread when VSYNC is disabled.
