Hi,
Since I'm the original author of fbtft I thought I'd highlight a couple of issues that's probably not well known.
Right after fbtft was added, fbdev was closed for new drivers[1] and the fbdev maintainer wanted to remove fbtft as a consequence of that decision, but Greg KH said he'd keep fbtft drivers in staging "until a matching DRM driver is present in the tree"[2].

Thanks for the great summary, much appreciated.
