Btw, patch [1/5] is somewhat broken today with the handling of sysdelay vs delay. Ideally I'd like to get rid of sysdelay and let write/blit/* use the same delay as mmap(). Not sure if you are keen on that though since it changes the behavior of your drivers. Otoh that may make fbcon usable on e-paper since it decouples the soft cursor refresh rate from the screen refresh rate.
You're right that that would make fbcon be better. I don't think there are too many users currently so now would be a good time to change. So yes, I agree with changing the current behavior and droping the sysdelay stuff. Thanks, jaya
