Thank you very much! So the driver now doesn't fail to probe because of the cmdline, but
what else I noticed is that the framebuffer console is now rotated by 90Â on a 800x1280
panel, while display in Xorg is vertical as it was before. Seems something else is still
missing, reverting "drm/modes: Rewrite the command line parser" returns the framebuffer's
console orientation
into the original state.
