Subject: video-get-the-default-mode-from-the-right-database-fb-modedb-uses-wrong-default_mode-fix
From: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxx>

Jordan observes:

"unless DEFAULT_MODEDB_INDEX for some reason gets set to non-zero, then it
could be dangerous.  If we agree that the default entry should aways be at 0,
then nuke the define and hard code the zero.  That way, nobody will be tempted
to change it."
