Convert to proper kernel-doc format.

Some have extra blank lines (not allowed immed.  after the function name)
or need blank lines (after all parameters).  Function summary must be only
one line.

Colon (":") in a function description does weird things (causes kernel-doc
to think that it's a new section head sadly).

Ville Syrjl 63921fbfbd [PATCH] matroxfb: Add support for Mystique AGP
Add new entries for Mystique AGP with the PCI ID 0x051e.

I don't actually have such boards but according to google they do exist.
Curiosly X.Org doesn't recognize that PCI ID.  And what's even more
interesting is that Matrox's own Windows drivers don't recognize it either.
After going through about a dozen different versions I did find one older
driver that does list this particular ID.  It is also listed in the pci.ids
file.

I'm not sure if non-220 AGP chips exist.  I left the chip revision check
intact for AGP chips nonetheless.

converted to struct fb_monspecs and a private modelist.  The search will be
done in this manner:

- if 1st detailed timing is preferred, use that
- else if dimensions of the display are known, use that to estimate xres and
- else if modelist has detailed timings, use the first detailed timing
- else, use the very first entry from the modelist

Zach Smith 998e6d5116 [PATCH] fbcon: Add rl (Roman Large) font
I converted the "rl" console font from the kbd utility to be a built-in font
for the framebuffer console, and I was wondering if you would be OK with
including it.  I've generated a font_rl.c file and related minor
modifications.  I find it's the most visually appealing of the kbd fonts which
is why I use it and selected it for conversion.  I believe the font is GPL'd.

Antonino A. Daplas 5fab851ea1 [PATCH] i810fb: Cleanup I2C code
- The functions for reading the 1st and 2nd bus are essentially the same,
  except for the register.  Consolidate them all.

- According to Nicolas Boichat, there is an undocumented 3rd i2c bus for
  attaching daughter cards.  Add support for this.
