drm_log_draw_new_line() calls drm_log_clear_line() and drm_log_draw_line(),
which independently call drm_client_buffer_vmap_local(),
drm_client_buffer_vunmap_local(), and drm_client_buffer_flush(). For each
call to drm_log_draw_new_line(), this results in 2 vmap/vunmap pairs and
2 flush calls, even though vmap_local maps the entire framebuffer
each time.

Refactor drm_log_clear_line() and drm_log_draw_line() to accept a
pre-mapped iosys_map by value, removing the per-line vmap/vunmap/flush
calls. Move the single vmap/vunmap pair and flush up to
drm_log_draw_new_line(), which now maps once before clearing and
drawing, then issues a single flush after unmapping.

Also remove the now-unused drm_rect from both functions.

Thanks, it looks good to me.
