With ARCH=i386, make allmodconfig && make W=1 C=1 reports: WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in drivers/video/console/mdacon.o Add the missing invocation of the MODULE_DESCRIPTION() macro to all files which have a MODULE_LICENSE(). This includes three other files which, although they did not produce a warning with the i386 allmodconfig configuration, may cause this warning with other configurations.

Patch title adjusted to: video: console: add missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() macros and applied to the fbdev git tree. Thanks, Helge
