Hi Linus, hello others,
  please apply this.

line_length, type and visual moved from display struct to the fb_info's fix
structure during last fbdev updates. Unfortunately generic code was not updated
together, so now every fbdev driver is broken.
That was done to push people to port there drivers to the new api. I
applied the patch to the Bk repository but expect more breakage.
Which new API? If you are going to remove logo and unaccelerated fbcon-cfb*,
then remove them completely. If you are not going to remove unaccelerated
fbcon-cfb*, then there is no reason for breaking them.

I'm not going to remove unaccelerated code from the matroxfb. Never.
