commit 2122b40580dd9d0620398739c773d07a7b7939d0 upstream.

When unregistering fbdev using unregister_framebuffer(), any bound
console will unbind automatically. This is working fine if this is the
only framebuffer, resulting in a switch to the dummy console. However if
there is a fb0 and I unregister fb1 having a bound console, I eventually
get a crash. The fastest way for me to trigger the crash is to do a
reboot, resulting in this splat:

The problem is in the console rebinding in fbcon_fb_unbind(). It uses the
virtual console index as the new framebuffer index to bind the console(s)
to. The correct way is to use the con2fb_map lookup table to find the
framebuffer index.

<title>framebuffer: fix border color</title>

commit f74a289b9480648a654e5afd8458c2263c03a1e1 upstream.

The framebuffer code uses the current background color to fill the border
when switching consoles, however, this results in inconsistent behavior.
For example:
- start Midnigh Commander
- the border is black
- switch to another console and switch back
- the border is cyan
- type something into the command line in mc
- the border is cyan
- switch to another console and switch back
- the border is black
- press F9 to go to menu
- the border is black
- switch to another console and switch back
- the border is dark blue

When switching to a console with Midnight Commander, the border is random
color that was left selected by the slang subsystem.

This patch fixes this inconsistency by always using black as the
background color when switching consoles.

Touching the VGA resources on an IVB EFI machine causes hard hangs when
we then kick out the efifb. Ouch.

Apparently this also prevents unclaimed register errors on hsw and
hard machine hangs on my i855gm when trying to unbind fbcon.

Also, we want this to make I915_FBDEV=n safe.

v2: Rebase and pimp commit message.

v3: We also need to unregister the vga console, otherwise the unbind
of the fb console before module unload might resurrect it again.

v4: Ignore errors when the vga console is already unregistered - this
can happen when e.g. reloading i915.ko.

Touching the VGA resources on an IVB EFI machine causes hard hangs when
we then kick out the efifb. Ouch.

Apparently this also prevents unclaimed register errors on hsw and
hard machine hangs on my i855gm when trying to unbind fbcon.

Also, we want this to make I915_FBDEV=n safe.

<title>console: Use explicit pointer type for vc_uni_pagedir* fields</title>

<id>e4bdab70dd07d8648a1ec3e029239aa86eb836b6</id>
<content type='text'>
The vc_data.vc_uni_pagedir filed is currently long int, supposedly to
be served generically.  This, however, leads to lots of cast to
pointer, and rather it worsens the readability significantly.

Actually, we have now only a single uni_pagedir map implementation,
and this won't change likely.  So, it'd be much more simple and
error-prone to just use the exact pointer for struct uni_pagedir
instead of long.

Ditto for vc_uni_pagedir_loc.  It's a pointer to the uni_pagedir, thus
it can be changed similarly to the exact type.

<title>vgacon: Fix &amp; cleanup refcounting</title>

<id>0f2893f0d1acff4bb1677b60c0486adc0075cb99</id>
<content type='text'>
The vgacon driver prepares a two element array of uni_pagedir_loc and
uses the second item as its own reference counter for sharing the
uni_pagedir.  And the code assumes blindly that the second item is
available if the assigned vc_uni_pagedir isn't the standard one, which
might be wrong (although currently it's so).

This patch fixes that wrong assumption, and gives a slight cleanup
along with it: namely, instead of array, just give the uni_pagedir_loc
and a separate refcount variable.  It makes the code a bit more
understandable at first glance.

This memory leak cause is, fbcon_ops's cursor_src is allocated in
soft_cursor() but not released in con2fb_release_oldinfo().
so, cursor_src is needed to be released when oldinfo is going to be
released.

<title>video: move fbdev to drivers/video/fbdev</title>

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.
