Hi

Since we got a maintainer for fbdev, I would like to
unorphan fbtft (with the idea of sending PRs to Helge)
and move it out of staging since there is no more clean
up work expected and no more drivers either.

Thoughts?

But why? We already have DRM drivers for some of these devices. Porting the others to DRM is such a better long-term plan. OTOH, as no one has shown up and converted them, maybe they should be left dead or removed entirely.

Best regards
Thomas
