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

The assignment of height to itself is redundant and can be removed.

Detected with Coccinelle.

These structures are only used to copy into other structures, so declare
them as const.

The semantic patch that makes this change in the fb_fix_screeninfo case is
as follows (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/).  The fb_var_screeninfo case is
analogous.

// &lt;smpl&gt;
@r disable optional_qualifier@
identifier i;
position p;
@@
static struct fb_fix_screeninfo i@p = { ... };

@ok@
identifier r.i;
expression e;
position p;
@@
e = i@p

@bad@
position p != {r.p,ok.p};
identifier r.i;
struct fb_fix_screeninfo e;
@@
e@i@p

@depends on !bad disable optional_qualifier@
identifier r.i;
@@
static
+const
 struct fb_fix_screeninfo i = { ... };
// &lt;/smpl&gt;

<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.
