The patch titled fb: add support for choice foreign endianness has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was fb-add-support-for-foreign-endianness-add-support-for-choice-foreign-endianness.patch This patch was dropped because it was folded into fb-add-support-for-foreign-endianness.patch The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: fb: add support for choice foreign endianness From: Anton Vorontsov <avorontsov@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> With this patch FB_FOREIGN_ENDIAN converted to menuconfig with the choice inside: which type of foreign endianness we want to compile-in. As a bonus, now fb subsystem will refuse to register framebuffer with unsupported endianness, and will suggest a way to solve the problem.
