Since the fbdev framework is in maintenance mode and all new display
drivers should be made with the DRM framework, remove fbtft from
staging.

FYI:
I'm working on a drm version of fbtft: https://github.com/notro/tinydrm
I have just picked it up after a 4 month break.

It is ready for a new review, except that I want to test how it would
perform as a drm userspace driver first (for spi that would mean adding
dma-buf support to spidev). If this performs well, then all the fbtft
drivers could move to userspace. If it doesn't, then at least (very slow)
i2c and e-ink displays could be userspace drivers.

Noralf.

I'd request that fbtft please be kept in staging until a successor is
ready, such as Noralf's tinydrm.

fbtft is a popular way to connect small TFT LCDs over SPI to single
board computers like BeagleBone and Raspberry Pi.  It became simpler
for users to get fbtft drivers working once Thomas Petazzoni added it
to staging at the end of 2014.  I would like to avoid going back to
the scenario where the fbtft drivers have to be added as a patch
before compiling the kernel.

thanks,
drew

Alright, sounds good to me.

So let's keep the staging fbdev drivers there until we have replacements.
