	Make 'default_mode' and 'default_var' be __initdata. Fixes these section warnings: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x128e0): Section mismatch: reference to .init.data:default_mode_CRT (between 'default_mode' and 'default_var') WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x128e4): Section mismatch: reference to .init.data:default_var_CRT (between 'default_var' and 'dev_attr_size') Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> Cc: "Antonino A.

2006-02-24	[PATCH] gbefb: IP32 gbefb depth change fix	Kaj-Michael Lang
	The gbefb driver does not update the framebuffer layers visual setting when depth is changed with fbset, resulting in strange colors (very dark blue in 16-bit, almost black in 24-bit).

2006-02-17	[PATCH] Fix SGI O2 compile error in drivers/video/gbefb.c	Joshua Kinard
	A sysfs function call uses the wrong parameter, and thus breaks a build on SGI O2.

2006-01-14	[PATCH] fbdev: Sanitize ->fb_mmap prototype	Christoph Hellwig
	No need for a file argument. If we'd really need it it's in vma->vm_file already. gbefb and sgivwfb used to set vma->vm_file to the file argument, but the kernel alrady did that.

2005-11-09	[DRIVER MODEL] Convert platform drivers to use struct platform_driver	Russell King
	This allows us to eliminate the casts in the drivers, and eventually remove the use of the device_driver function pointer methods for platform device drivers. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-11-07	[PATCH] fbcon/fbdev: Move softcursor out of fbdev to fbcon	Antonino A. Daplas
	According to Jon Smirl, filling in the field fb_cursor with soft_cursor for drivers that do not support hardware cursors is redundant. The soft_cursor function is usable by all drivers because it is just a wrapper around fb_imageblit. And because soft_cursor is an fbcon-specific hook, the file is moved to the console directory. Thus, drivers that do not support hardware cursors can leave the fb_cursor field blank. For drivers that do, they can fill up this field with their own version. The end result is a smaller code size. And if the framebuffer console is not loaded, module/kernel size is also reduced because the soft_cursor module will also not be loaded.

2005-11-05	[DRIVER MODEL] Fix gbefb	Russell King
	Statically allocated devices in module data is a potential cause of oopsen. The device may be in use by a userspace process, which will keep a reference to the device. If the module is unloaded, the module data will be freed. Subsequent use of the platform device will cause a kernel oops. Use generic platform device allocation/release code in modules.

2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds
	Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
