Some drm drivers populate their fb_ops with fb_sys_read/write fb sysfs ops. Create a drm_fb_helper function that wraps around these calls. This is part of an effort to prevent drm drivers from calling fbdev functions directly, in order to make fbdev emulation a top level drm option. v2: - Added kerneldocs - Follow the drm way of aligning of arguments in func definitions - Remove unnecessary checks for non NULL fb_info Signed-off-by: Archit Taneja <architt@codeaurora.org> --- drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig | 1 + drivers/gpu/drm/drm_fb_helper.c | 26 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ include/drm/drm_fb_helper.h | 5 +++++ 3 files changed, 32 insertions(+)
