<id>urn:sha1:f7018c21350204c4cf628462f229d44d03545254</id>
<content type='text'>
The drivers/video directory is a mess. It contains generic video related
files, directories for backlight, console, linux logo, lots of fbdev
device drivers, fbdev framework files.

Make some order into the chaos by creating drivers/video/fbdev
directory, and move all fbdev related files there.

No functionality is changed, although I guess it is possible that some
subtle Makefile build order related issue could be created by this
patch.

The driver core clears the driver data to NULL after device_release
or on probe failure, since commit 0998d0631001288a5974afc0b2a5f568bcdecb4d
(device-core: Ensure drvdata = NULL when no driver is bound).
Thus, it is not needed to manually clear the device driver data to NULL.

<title>Drivers: video: remove __dev* attributes.</title>

<content type='text'>
CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option.  As a result, the __dev*
markings need to be removed.

This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata,
__devinitconst, and __devexit from these drivers.

Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me
in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

We must not use any information in the passed var besides xoffset,
yoffset and vmode as otherwise applications might abuse it.

Since fb_info is now refcounted and thus may get freed at any time it
gets unregistered module unloading will try to unregister framebuffer
as stored in platform data on probe though this pointer may
be stale.

Cleanup platform data on framebuffer release.

<content type='text'>
Fix up the sections in the vga16fb driver, by moving:

*	the variables vga16_defined and vga16fb
	from .init.data to .devinit.data

*	vga16fb_setup() from .text to .init.text

*	vga16fb_remove() from .text. to .devexit.text

This fixes the following warnings issued by modpost:

WARNING: drivers/video/built-in.o(.devinit.text+0x1a420): Section mismatch in re
ference from the function vga16fb_probe() to the (unknown reference) .init.data:
(unknown)
The function __devinit vga16fb_probe() references
a (unknown reference) __initdata (unknown).
If (unknown) is only used by vga16fb_probe then
annotate (unknown) with a matching annotation.

WARNING: drivers/video/built-in.o(.devinit.text+0x1a437): Section mismatch in reference from the function vga16fb_probe() to the variable .init.data:vga16fb_defined
The function __devinit vga16fb_probe() references
a variable __initdata vga16fb_defined.
If vga16fb_defined is only used by vga16fb_probe then
annotate vga16fb_defined with a matching annotation.

WARNING: drivers/video/built-in.o(.devinit.text+0x1a457): Section mismatch in reference from the function vga16fb_probe() to the variable .init.data:vga16fb_fix
The function __devinit vga16fb_probe() references
a variable __initdata vga16fb_fix.
If vga16fb_fix is only used by vga16fb_probe then
annotate vga16fb_fix with a matching annotation.

let vga16fb claim 0xA0000+0x10000 region as its aperture;
drm drivers don't use it, so we have to detect it and kick
vga16fb manually - but only if drm is driving the primary card
