	[note this requires an fb patch posted to linux-fbdev-devel already] This uses the normal video= command line option to control the kms output setup at boot time. It is used to override the autodetection done by kms. video= normally takes a framebuffer as the first parameter, in kms it will take a connector name, DVI-I-1, or LVDS-1 etc. If no output connector is specified the mode string will apply to all connectors. The mode specification used will match down the probed modes, and if no mode is found it will add a CVT mode that matches. video=1024x768 - all connectors match a 1024x768 mode or add a CVT on video=VGA-1:1024x768, VGA-1 connector gets mode only. The same strings as used in current fb modedb.c are used, except I've added three more letters, e, D, d, e = enable, D = enable Digital, d = disable, which allow a connector to be forced into a certain state.

	Initially I always meant this code to be shared, but things ran away from me before I got to it. This refactors the i915 and radeon kms fbdev interaction layers out into generic helpers + driver specific pieces. It moves all the panic/sysrq enhancements to the core file, and stores a linked list of kernel fbs. This could possibly be improved to only store the fb which has fbcon on it for panics etc. radeon retains some specific codes used for a big endian workaround. changes: fix oops in v1 fix freeing path for crtc_info Reviewed-by: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org> Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>
