I'm not too familiar with DRM, unfortunately, so I can't give you a
great answer.

My current aim is just to get this and the other gc-linux patches into
upstream before they begin to rot.

But, I'd be happy to look into porting this to DRM after it's merged though.

We generally don't accept new drivers into fbdev.

Best regards

Just for the record:
Is there a reason why it wasn't (or can't be) ported to DRM ?
Looking at the patch (and the hardware behind it) I do see various reasons,
but I'd like to hear it from you...
