2017-08-01	video/chips: constify fb_fix_screeninfo and fb_var_screeninfo structures	Gustavo A. R. Silva	1	-2/+2
	These structures are only used to copy into other structures, so declare them as const. This issue was detected using Coccinelle and the following semantic patch: @r disable optional_qualifier@ identifier i; position p; @@ static struct fb_fix_screeninfo i@p = { ... }; @ok@ identifier r.i; expression e; position p; @@ e = i@p @bad@ position p != {r.p,ok.p}; identifier r.i; struct fb_fix_screeninfo e; @@ e@i@p @depends on !bad disable optional_qualifier@ identifier r.i; @@ static +const struct fb_fix_screeninfo i = { ... }; The semantic patch for fb_var_screeninfo is analogous.

2014-08-26	fbdev: Remove __init from chips_hw_init() to fix build failure	Pranith Kumar	1	-1/+1
	Fix build failure caused as follows: The function chipsfb_pci_init() references the function __init chips_hw_init(). This is often because chipsfb_pci_init lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of chips_hw_init is wrong. make: *** [drivers] Error 2 by removing the __init annotation from chips_hw_init(). The other thing that could have been done was annotating chipsfb_pci_init(). But that cannot be done since chipsfb_pci_init() is called from non __init functions.

2014-04-17	video: move fbdev to drivers/video/fbdev	Tomi Valkeinen	1	-0/+519
	The drivers/video directory is a mess. It contains generic video related files, directories for backlight, console, linux logo, lots of fbdev device drivers, fbdev framework files. Make some order into the chaos by creating drivers/video/fbdev directory, and move all fbdev related files there. No functionality is changed, although I guess it is possible that some subtle Makefile build order related issue could be created by this patch.
