4. fb_validate_mode(struct fb_var_screeninfo *var,

- validate mode timings in var

5. fb_get_mode(int flags, int val, struct
fb_var_screeninfo *var, struct
fb_info *info)

- compute mode timings using GTF (refresh driven,
hsync driven, pixclock
driven, or maximized refresh) and place result in
var

#4 and #5 are already in fbmon.c

Wouldn't it be better to make fb_get_mode only return
the list of valid modes based on the hardware and
monitor (if available) combination rather than letting
the app sort it out?

We could then make a new IOCTL fb_get_hwmode for
returning the card's capabilities if more detail is
desired.
