video: constify fb ops across all drivers

2019-12-05T08:57:53Z

Now that the fbops member of struct fb_info is const, we can start making the ops const as well. This does not cover all drivers; some actually modify the fbops struct, for example to adjust for different configurations, and others do more involved things that I'd rather not touch in practically obsolete drivers. Mostly this is the low hanging fruit where we can add "const" and be done with it. v3: - un-constify atyfb, mb862xx, nvidia and uvesabf (0day) v2: - fix typo (Christophe de Dinechin) - use "static const" instead of "const static" in mx3fb.c - also constify smscufx.c Cc: linux-fbdev@vger.kernel.org Reviewed-by: Daniel Vetter Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/ce67f14435f3af498f2e8bf35ce4be11f7504132.1575390740.git.jani.nikula@intel.com

video: fbdev: annotate fb_fix_screeninfo with const and __initconst

2017-09-04T14:00:49Z

Make these const as they are only used during a copy operation. Some structures are used as a copy operation inside __init functions, so make them const and replace __initdata with __initconst to avoid section conflict error.

video: fbdev: skeletonfb: constify pci_device_id.

2017-08-01T15:20:41Z

pci_device_id are not supposed to change at runtime. All functions working with pci_device_id provided by work with const pci_device_id. So mark the non-const structs as const.

fbdev: kill fb_rotate

2016-02-26T11:28:35Z

The fb_rotate method in struct fb_ops is never actually invoked, and it's been that way in the entire history of git (in fact, the last occurrence of the string '->fb_rotate' vanished over 10 years ago, with b4d8aea6d6, and that merely tested whether the callback existed). So remove some dead code and make struct fb_obs a little smaller. Signed-off-by: Rasmus Villemoes Signed-off-by: Tomi Valkeinen

video: move fbdev to drivers/video/fbdev

2014-04-17T05:10:19Z

The drivers/video directory is a mess. It contains generic video related files, directories for backlight, console, linux logo, lots of fbdev device drivers, fbdev framework files. Make some order into the chaos by creating drivers/video/fbdev directory, and move all fbdev related files there. No functionality is changed, although I guess it is possible that some subtle Makefile build order related issue could be created by this patch.
