I feel a bit like a broken record, but: Instead of reinventing broken delayed fbdev setup everywhere, can we polish Thierry's patches to move that into the fbdev helpers in the core? hisilicon isn't the only driver the (re)invents this weel, it'd be really awesome if we could fix this bug just once ... For reference, the patches: http://markmail.org/message/d3jc4vebkndtvlkf#query:+page:1+mid:d3jc4vebkndtvlkf+state:results I guess Thierry got sidetracked on these, but except for a bit of locking scheme polish I think they've been mostly ready. Shouldn't be much work to refresh them, hunt for other new drivers reinventing this wheel, do the locking polish maybe and then get them landed.
