Replace the architecture's fbdev helpers with the generic

Looking at the macro in asm-generic/fb.h, fb_pgprotect() is being replaced with
a no-op function. Is that intentional? Can you briefly explain the background
for this change?

Patch 01 of this patchset changes the generic fb_pgprotect() to set
pgprot_writecombine(). So on SH, there should be no change at all.


Ah, I missed that, thanks for the explanation. Let me check and Ack your patch

Thanks!

then. I assume you will be taking this patch as part of the whole series through
your own tree?

Yes, I'd merge it through drm-misc-next ideally.

Best regards
Thomas


Thanks,
Adrian
