This all comes from using the event-reporting mechanism to hook into the fbdev module. Daniel suggested to copy over some of the fbdev drivers for porting, which would solve the problem.
On the fbdev event reporting stuff: I have a patch series to remove that, and replace the fbdev->fbcon interactions with direct function calls. The locking in the notifier is a serious pain. I guess that would be another detail we'd need to change, if we go with this approach here. -Daniel
