That's > unless you are only looking at compile-testing. Pawel's patches are going nowhere slowly as far as I can tell due to a slow feedback loop and extensive discussion of the DT bindings. I think this patch is an orthogonal thing, though - as you say it's useful for compile testing on its own and it means the driver will load as soon as the DT bindings are supported. It's one less patch to carry out of tree and one less iteration when debugging why the framebuffer isn't supported when testing.
