The dsi_irq_stats structure is a little too big to fit on the
stack of a 32-bit task, depending on the specific gcc options:

fbdev/omap2/omapfb/dss/dsi.c: In function 'dsi_dump_dsidev_irqs':
fbdev/omap2/omapfb/dss/dsi.c:1621:1: error: the frame size of 1064 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]

Since this is only a debugfs file, performance is not critical,
so just dynamically allocate it, and print an error message
in there in place of a failure code when the allocation fails.

<title>fbdev: matroxfb: G200eW: Increase max memory from 1 MB to 16 MB</title>

<id>f685dd7a8025f2554f73748cfdb8143a21fb92c7</id>
<content type='text'>
Commit 62d89a7d49af ("video: fbdev: matroxfb: set maxvram of vbG200eW to
the same as vbG200 to avoid black screen") accidently decreases the
maximum memory size for the Matrox G200eW (102b:0532) from 8 MB to 1 MB
by missing one zero. This caused the driver initialization to fail with
the messages below, as the minimum required VRAM size is 2 MB:

     [    9.436420] matroxfb: Matrox MGA-G200eW (PCI) detected
     [    9.444502] matroxfb: cannot determine memory size
     [    9.449316] matroxfb: probe of 0000:0a:03.0 failed with error -1

So, add the missing 0 to make it the intended 16 MB. Successfully tested on
the Dell PowerEdge R910/0KYD3D, BIOS 2.10.0 08/29/2013, that the warning is
gone.

While at it, add a leading 0 to the maxdisplayable entry, so it’s aligned
properly. The value could probably also be increased from 8 MB to 16 MB, as
the G200 uses the same values, but I have not checked any datasheet.

Note, matroxfb is obsolete and superseded by the maintained DRM driver
mga200, which is used by default on most systems where both drivers are
available. Therefore, on most systems it was only a cosmetic issue.

The implementation of strscpy() is more robust and safer.

<title>fbdev: make offb driver tristate</title>

<id>9d8b5376cc2848ca22314fdec9a7a45b1bf69189</id>
<content type='text'>
Make the offb (Open Firmware frame buffer) driver tristate,
i.e., so that it can be built as a loadable module.

However, it still depends on the setting of DRM_OFDRM
so that both of these drivers cannot be builtin at the same time
nor can one be builtin and the other one a loadable module.

Build-tested successfully with all combination of DRM_OFDRM and FB_OF.

This fixes a build issue that Michal reported when FB_OF=y and
DRM_OFDRM=m:

powerpc64-linux-ld: drivers/video/fbdev/offb.o:(.data.rel.ro+0x58): undefined reference to `cfb_fillrect'
powerpc64-linux-ld: drivers/video/fbdev/offb.o:(.data.rel.ro+0x60): undefined reference to `cfb_copyarea'

If an error occurs after a successful uvesafb_init_mtrr() call, it must be
undone by a corresponding arch_phys_wc_del() call, as already done in the
remove function.

This has been added in the remove function in commit 63e28a7a5ffc
