Current kernels have a non-working platinumfb due to some resource
management issues. This fixes it.

Why isn't this 2.6.23 material?

We decided it's been broken long enough and nobody complained so it
wasn't worth pushing. I wouldn't be surprised if there weren't more than
a handful of people left with a PowerMac 7200 which is I think the only
machine using platinumfb.

Feel free to send it to Linus for .23 if you feel like it though.

Cheers,
Ben.
