[PATCH] fb: mark fb_get_options as deprecated, and remove from skeletonfb.c

From: Andres Salomon
Date: Sun Mar 09 2008 - 13:29:21 EST


fb_get_options is now marked as deprecated. This also removes
the fb_get_options stuff from skeletonfb.c (so people don't use it
in new code), and it allows mode_options to be set via module_param.
