OK?Yep, that works for me :)Another thing worth considering is also that both drivers will probe if they are enabled (which is pretty likely), which is not great :) I guess we should make them mutually exclusive through KconfigWe already have several drivers in fbdev and DRM that handle the same hardware. We don't do this for any other pair, why bother now?Yeah, but simplefb/simpledrm are going to be enabled pretty much everywhere, as opposed to the other drivers that are more specialized.
Well, OK. But I'd like to give simpledrm preference over simplefb. There should be an incentive to switch to DRM.
