Fbdev provides helpers for framebuffer I/O, such as fb_readl(),
fb_writel() or fb_memcpy_to_fb(). The implementation of each helper
depends on the architecture, but they are all equivalent to regular
I/O functions of similar names. So use regular functions instead and
move all helpers into <asm-generic/fb.h>
The first patch a simple whitespace cleanup.
Until now, <linux/fb.h> contained an include of <asm/io.h>. As this
will go away, patches 2 to 4 prepare include statements in the various
drivers. Source files that use regular I/O helpers, such as readl(),
now include <linux/io.h>. Source files that use framebuffer I/O
helpers, such as fb_readl(), now include <linux/fb.h>.
Patch 5 replaces the architecture-based if-else branching in
<linux/fb.h> by helpers in <asm-generic/fb.h>. All helpers use Linux'
existing I/O functions.
Patch 6 harmonizes naming among fbdev and existing I/O functions.
The patchset has been built for a variety of platforms, such as x86-64,
arm, aarch64, ppc64, parisc, m64k, mips and sparc.
v6:
* fix build on 64-bit mips (kernel test robot)
* update fb_io_fops.c
v5:
* fix build on s390
v4:
* keep fb_mem*() as-is on ia64, loongarch, sparc64 (Arnd)
* don't include <asm/fb.h> (Sam)
v3:
* add the new helpers in <asm-generic/fb.h>
* support reordering and native byte order (Geert, Arnd)
v2:
* use Linux I/O helpers (Sam, Arnd)

fbdev: Include <linux/io.h> in various drivers
fbdev: Include <linux/fb.h> instead of <asm/fb.h>
fbdev: Move framebuffer I/O helpers into <asm/fb.h>
fbdev: Rename fb_mem*() helpers
