Hi, I want to start out by saying that this patchset is low priority for me and if no one has interest or time to review this, that is just fine. I was in the flow and just typed it out. This patchset adds a way for fbdev emulation code to create a framebuffer that is backed by a dumb buffer. drm_fb_helper gets a drm_file to hang the objects on, drm_framebuffer_create_dumb() creates the framebuffer and drm_fb_helper_fini() destroys it. I have verified that all cma drivers supports dumb buffers, so converting the library should be fine for all. A patch by David Herrmann from a year ago made this easy. It was the last piece in his work to make it possible to create a drm_file for in-kernel use, but it never got merged. I've cc'ed intel-gfx since that will give CI runs of the core patches if I understood Daniel right. Noralf.
