We need to cleanup and generalize a function for matching a mode to the mode list to be used by drivers for validation in check_var() too, my current algorithm in radeonfb is a bit broken for CRTs for example, and has the nasty habit of refusing modes rather than "adapting" them.I'm curious as to what you mean by "adapting" them.
Well, I'm getting complaints regulary when radeonfb refuses a mode (via set_var) that has out of range timings instead of picking a closer one. I'm not fully sure this is the right way to do though...
