Alexey Khoroshilov 524edf3877 fbdev: fbmem: implement error handling in fbmem_init()
fbmem_init() ignores all errors, while fbmem_exit() does not
check if deallocating resources are valid.

Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).

Daniel Vetter c3c296b069 fbdev: Debug knob to register without holding console_lock
When the usual fbcon legacy options are enabled we have
->register_framebuffer
  ->fb notifier chain calls into fbcon
    ->fbcon sets up console on new fbi
      ->fbi->set_par
        ->drm_fb_helper_set_par exercises full kms api

And because of locking inversion hilarity all of register_framebuffer
is done with the console lock held. Which means that the first time on
driver load we exercise _all_ the kms code (all probe paths and
modeset paths for everything connected) is under the console lock.
That means if anything goes belly-up in that big pile of code nothing
ever reaches logfiles (and the machine is dead).

Usual tactic to debug that is to temporarily remove those console_lock
calls to be able to capture backtraces. I'm fed up writing this patch
and recompiling kernels. Hence this patch here to add an unsafe,
kernel-taining option to do this at runtime.

Daniel Vetter ea6763c104 video/fbdev: Always built-in video= cmdline parsing
In drm/i915 we want to get at the video= cmdline modes even when we
don't have fbdev support enabled, so that users can always override
the kernel's initial mode selection.

But that gives us a direct depency upon the parsing code in the fbdev
subsystem. Since it's so little code just extract these 2 functions
and always build them in.

Whiel at it fix the checkpatch fail in this code.

v2: Also move fb_mode_option. Spotted by the kbuild.

v3: Review from Geert:
- Keep the old copyright notice from fb_mem.c, although I have no
idea what exactly applies.
- Only compile this when needed.

I prefer if we can merge this through drm-next since we'll use it
there in follow-up patches.

Arnd Bergmann 23e51f87f3 video: export fb_prepare_logo
Some drivers that may be loadable modules use the fb_prepare_logo
function, so we have to export it. Found during randconfig
builds with mmpfb.

Tomi Valkeinen 19757fc843 fbdev: move fbdev core files to separate directory
Instead of having fbdev framework core files at the root fbdev
directory, mixed with random fbdev device drivers, move the fbdev core
files to a separate core directory. This makes it much clearer which of
the files are actually part of the fbdev framework, and which are part
of device drivers.
