[PATCH] new fbdev api.

From: James Simmons (jsimmons@transvirtual.com)
Date: Wed Apr 03 2002 - 15:30:24 EST


This patch is the first in a series to move over to the new fbdev api. It
is against 2.5.7. The basic goal is remove the tones of redundent code in
the fbdev layer and make a much simpler api. The main way to accomplish
this is to reverse the flow of logic for the console system. The fbdev
system was later developed and we see alot of needless functionality added
to the fbdev layer. Instead the flow should be functionality in the
console system to the fbdev layer instead of the reverse. Also
accomplished is the seperation of the fbdev layer from the console layer.
This will have a very important impact on linux embedded devices. It has
been tested and has been in Dave Jones tree for some time. Geert with
your blessing I like to have it added to Linus tree.
