Yes, we are sure. AFAIK there is no need to lock when it is a fbdev.
The older version were "alone" drivers: they needed to lock because
they used fops and they exported functions.


ok, so no other driver than fb could use 'cfag12864b_buffer'. Maybe
I'm missing something but why did you split your fb driver into
cfag12864b.c and cfag12864fb.c ?

BTW, 'cfag12864b_cache' could have been static...
