Reported by: Pavel Kysilka (Bugzilla Bug 5059)
The intelfb driver does not keep resolution set with fbset after
switching to anot console and back.
Steps to reproduce:
initial options: tty1,tty2 - 1024x768-60
1) tty1 - fbset after booting (1024x768-60)
2) tty1 - fbset 800x600-100
tty1: 800x600-100
3) swith to tty2, swith to tty1
tty1: 1024x768-60 (the same resolution as default from kernel booting)
This bug is caused by intelfb unintentionally destroying info->flags in
set_par(). Therefore the flag, FBINFO_MISC_USEREVENT used to notify
fbcon of a mode change was cleared causing the above problem. This bug
though is not intelfb specific, as other drivers may also be affected.
The fix is to save info->flags in a local variable before calling any
of the driver hooks. A more definitive fix (for post 2.6.13) is to
separate info->flags into one that is set by the driver and another that
is set by core fbdev/fbcon.

Do not use memcpy in fb_pad_aligned_buffer. It is suboptimal because only
a few bytes are moved at a time. Replace with a for-loop.

Several drivers miss filling in the access_align field. So this patch has

Since no one is using the inbuf, outbuf of struct fb_pixmap I removed their
use in the framebuffer console. The idea is instead move the pixmap
functionality below the accelerated functions intead of on top as the way
it is now. If there is no objection please apply. This is against Linus
latestr GIT tree. Thank you.

I have recompiled Linux kernel 2.6.11.5 documentation for me and our
university students again. The documentation could be extended for more
sources which are equipped by structured comments for recent 2.6 kernels. I
have tried to proceed with that task. I have done that more times from 2.6.0
time and it gets boring to do same changes again and again. Linux kernel
compiles after changes for i386 and ARM targets. I have added references to
some more files into kernel-api book, I have added some section names as well.
So please, check that changes do not break something and that categories are
not too much skewed.
I have changed kernel-doc to accept "fastcall" and "asmlinkage" words reserved
by kernel convention. Most of the other changes are modifications in the
comments to make kernel-doc happy, accept some parameters description and do
not bail out on errors. Changed <pid> to @pid in the description, moved some
#ifdef before comments to correct function to comments bindings, etc.
You can see result of the modified documentation build at
http://cmp.felk.cvut.cz/~pisa/linux/lkdb-2.6.11.tar.gz
Some more sources are ready to be included into kernel-doc generated
documentation. Sources has been added into kernel-api for now. Some more
section names added and probably some more chaos introduced as result of quick
cleanup work.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
