Hi Steffen,

Thanks for the patch.

That's going to be pretty difficult to read :-) Would it make sense to group 
several attributes logically (for instance using %ux%u for m->xres, m->yres) ?

Shouldn't this (and the other non exported functions below) be static ?

What about making vm a mandatory argument ? It looks to me like a caller bug 
if vm is NULL.

You can remove the blank line.

I wonder how to avoid abuse of this functions. It's a useful helper for 
drivers that need to get a video mode once only, but would result in lower 
performances if a driver calls it for every mode. Drivers must call 
of_get_display_timing_list instead in that case and case the display timings. 
I'm wondering whether we should really expose of_get_videomode.

No need to assign ret to 0 here.

No need for a blank line.

This can't happen. If vm is NULL the videomode_from_timing call above will 
return -EINVAL, and this function will then return immediately without 
reaching this code block.

Same as above, do we really need to expose this helper function ? If so we 
should at least clearly document (using kerneldoc for instance) that drivers 
should only use it if they need to get a single mode once.

What about not defining those if CONFIG_DRM is not set ? No driver should call 
these functions in that case. If we really need those stubs they should return 
an error.
