Hi,
Since the fbdev framework is in maintenance mode and all new display drivers should be made with the DRM framework, remove the fbdev drivers from staging.
Note: the patches are created with git format-patch -D, so they can't be applied. Only for review.
+1 from my side. Now that we have the simple pipe helpers in drm-kms, and a few drivers starting to use them, there's really no reasons left anymore to have fbdev drivers.
Well, I think there's the MMU problem. If I recall right, someone said DRM doesn't compile/work without MMU.
