	From looking at the PCI IDs, every device supported by intelfb is also supported by i915. Anyone still using intelfb should please move on to i915, which does everything intelfb does but better. Removing intelfb is motivated by the driver's excessive use of the global screen_info state. The state belongs to architecture and firmware code; device drivers should not attempt to access it. But fixing intelfb would require a significant change in the driver's probing logic. As intelfb has been obsolete for nearly 2 decades, it is probably not worth the effort. Let's just remove it. Also remove the related documentation. Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Acked-by: Maik Broemme <mbroemme@libmpq.org> Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>
2014-04-17	video: move fbdev to drivers/video/fbdev	Tomi Valkeinen
	The drivers/video directory is a mess. It contains generic video related files, directories for backlight, console, linux logo, lots of fbdev device drivers, fbdev framework files. Make some order into the chaos by creating drivers/video/fbdev directory, and move all fbdev related files there. No functionality is changed, although I guess it is possible that some subtle Makefile build order related issue could be created by this patch.
