Hi,
Why this patch get dropped in the end?
Since the global screen_info is an arch-specific thing,
Whenever an arch-neutral module or subsystem references the global screen_info,
There are some complaints from either compile testing robot.
Well, a programmer may handle it by using the CONFIG_SYSFB guard,
but it is not as precise as what this patch provided.
Personally, I think this patch is still valuable.
I suggest either forcing all other architectures to export screen_info,
like the X86 and IA64 arch does, after all the screen_info is a good thing.
or provide the fine-control version like this patch does.
