For the fbdev layer the you have your struct fb_var_screeninfo and also 
struct fb_videomode. The struct fb_videomode was developed for the modes
database we have. Struct fb_var_screeninfo is more than just resolution 
data which is why we create struct fb_videomode. The really nice thing 
is that the conversion from fb_var to fb_videomode always fixes the 
pixclock to the proper values so you don't need the pixclock = 0 work 
around. I tested this patch with the intelfb driver and had no problem.
I have used it in the past with a KMS enabled tdfx drver I wrote. In the 
future this function can be used for fbdev level mode setting. Please try 
it out and i hope it can be merged. Thanks.

Is there some guarantee that mode won't be freed before fbmode? That
would leave fbmode->name pointing to invalid memory.

What about the sync flags?

Is interlaced+dblscan considered an invalid combination? The conversion
to the other direction didn't make that assumption.
