Merge tag 'fbdev-for-6.17-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/linux-fbdev

Pull fbdev updates from Helge Deller:
"One potential buffer overflow fix in the framebuffer registration
function, some fixes for the imxfb, nvidiafb and simplefb drivers, and
a bunch of cleanups for fbcon, kyrofb and svgalib.

Framework fixes:
- fix potential buffer overflow in do_register_framebuffer() [Yongzhen Zhang]

Driver fixes:
- imxfb: prevent null-ptr-deref [Chenyuan Yang]
- nvidiafb: fix build on 32-bit ARCH=um [Johannes Berg]
- nvidiafb: add depends on HAS_IOPORT [Randy Dunlap]
- simplefb: Use of_reserved_mem_region_to_resource() for "memory-region" [Rob Herring]

Cleanups:
- fbcon: various code cleanups wrt blinking [Ville Syrjälä]
- kyrofb: Convert to devm_*() functions [Giovanni Di Santi]
- svgalib: Coding style cleanups [Darshan R.]
- Fix typo in Kconfig text for FB_DEVICE [Daniel Palmer]"

* tag 'fbdev-for-6.17-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/linux-fbdev:
fbcon: Use 'bool' where appopriate
fbcon: Introduce get_{fg,bg}_color()
fbcon: fbcon_is_inactive() -> fbcon_is_active()
fbcon: fbcon_cursor_noblink -> fbcon_cursor_blink
fbdev: Fix typo in Kconfig text for FB_DEVICE
fbdev: imxfb: Check fb_add_videomode to prevent null-ptr-deref
fbdev: svgalib: Clean up coding style
fbdev: kyro: Use devm_ioremap_wc() for screen mem
fbdev: kyro: Use devm_ioremap() for mmio registers
fbdev: kyro: Add missing PCI memory region request
fbdev: simplefb: Use of_reserved_mem_region_to_resource() for "memory-region"

Now that ARCH=um no longer has IO port accesses, this driver
can no longer build as-is. Make the IO port calls not just
conditional on i386 but also !UML

video: move fbdev to drivers/video/fbdev

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.

nvidiafb: prevent triggering of softlockup

If the chip locks up, we get into a long polling loop,
where the softlockup detector kicks in.

If the chip locks up, we get into a long polling loop,
where the softlockup detector kicks in.
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=151878
for an example.

Chip lockup can occur at 3 points (flush, sync, and wait). Consolidate and
allow the driver to go to safe mode cleanly.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

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!
