Merge tag 'fbdev-v4.14' of git://github.com/bzolnier/linux
Pull fbdev updates from Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz:
- make fbcon a built-time depency for fbdev (fbcon was tristate option
before, now it is a bool) - this is a first step in preparations for
making console_lock usage saner (currently it acts like the BKL for
all things fbdev/fbcon) (Daniel Vetter)
- add fbcon=margin:<color> command line option to select the fbcon
margin color (David Lechner)
- add DMI quirk table for x86 systems which need fbcon rotation
(devices like Asus T100HA, GPD Pocket, the GPD win and the I.T.Works
TW891) (Hans de Goede)
- fix 1bpp logo support for unusual width (needed by LEGO MINDSTORMS
EV3) (David Lechner)
- enable Xilinx FB driver for ARM ZynqMP platform (Michal Simek)
- fix use after free in the error path of udlfb driver (Anton Vasilyev)
- fix error return code handling in pxa3xx_gcu driver (Gustavo A. R.
Silva)
- fix bootparams.screeninfo arguments checking in vgacon (Jan H.
Schönherr)
- do not leak uninitialized padding in clk to userspace in the debug
code of atyfb driver (Vladis Dronov)
- fix compiler warnings in fbcon code and matroxfb driver (Arnd
Bergmann)
- convert fbdev susbsytem to using %pOF instead of full_name (Rob
Herring)
- structures constifications (Arvind Yadav, Bhumika Goyal, Gustavo A.
R. Silva, Julia Lawall)
- misc cleanups (Gustavo A. R. Silva, Hyun Kwon, Julia Lawall, Kuninori
Morimoto, Lynn Lei)
