I don't like this patch. You cannot change the timings for Taal, so those added functions look quite hacky. The reason for this patch isn't clear from the description (it should). If I guess correctly, the point of the patch is to be able to change the default color format via boot arguments when using taal panel? If so, I think the change should be in the omapfb driver. Perhaps the omapfb driver should: 1. check if check_timings & set_timings exist 2. if they do exist, do the same thing as the code does now 3. if they don't, use get_timings to verify that the given resolution is correct That wouldn't be perfect either, but I guess it should do the job. But this is again something where FB framework and OMAP HW do not quite match, and we end up with hacky solution, no matter what we do. But we can try to keep the hacks in the omapfb driver =).
