  • MAX_NR_CONSOLES, fg_console, want_console and last_console are more of a
    function of the VT layer than the TTY one. Moving these to vt.h and vt_kern.h
    allows all of the framebuffer and VT console drivers to remove their
    dependency on tty.h.

  • WARNING: drivers/video/pm2fb.o - Section mismatch: reference
    to .init.data: from .text after 'pm2fb_set_par' (at offset 0xd5d)
    WARNING: drivers/video/pm2fb.o - Section mismatch: reference
    to .init.data: from .text after 'pm2fb_set_par' (at offset 0xd82)

    They are caused because pm2fb_set_par() uses lowhsync and lowvsync which
    are marked __devinitdata.

  • Attached is a small patch which configures the correct memory clock and
    timings on the Elsa Winner 2000 Office pm2 based card. This is necessary when
    the card is used on a platform which does not support PC style BIOS
    initialization.

  • According to Jon Smirl, filling in the field fb_cursor with soft_cursor for
    drivers that do not support hardware cursors is redundant. The soft_cursor
    function is usable by all drivers because it is just a wrapper around
    fb_imageblit. And because soft_cursor is an fbcon-specific hook, the file is
    moved to the console directory.

    Thus, drivers that do not support hardware cursors can leave the fb_cursor
    field blank. For drivers that do, they can fill up this field with their own
    version.

    The end result is a smaller code size. And if the framebuffer console is not
    loaded, module/kernel size is also reduced because the soft_cursor module will
    also not be loaded.

  • `gcc -W' likes to complain if the static keyword is not at the beginning of
    the declaration. This patch fixes all remaining occurrences of "inline
    static" up with "static inline" in the entire kernel tree (140 occurrences in
    47 files).

    While making this change I came across a few lines with trailing whitespace
    that I also fixed up, I have also added or removed a blank line or two here
    and there, but there are no functional changes in the patch.

  • Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
