Re: mode_option or mode parameter (was: i810fb module parameter 'mode_option' inconsistent with other framebuffer modules)

I would like to propose instead to make the 'mode' / 'mode_option'
parameter name optional for all drivers where possible. This will
greatly simplify framebuffer driver loading by the boot scripts, which
currently cannot easily identify drivers needing either parameter name.

so one would be able to use

# modprobe <xxxfb> 1024x768 <other options>

instead of 

# modprobe <xxxfb> mode_option=1024x768 <other options>
