My proposal would be to add a little helper to fbdev that includes your
suggestions:
bool fb_modesetting_disabled(const char *drvname)
{
fwonly = video_firmware_drivers_only()
if (fbonly && drvname)
pr_warn("")
return fbonly;
}
I'm still wondering why you can't simply merge it with what is printed in
[1] https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_nomodeset.c#L18
Other than that, your the proposal is okay, if you adjust your patches to
call this new function "fb_modesetting_disabled()" instead of
calling video_firmware_drivers_only() like this:
+ if (video_firmware_drivers_only())
+ return -ENODEV;
