FBIO_WAITFORVSYNC is a stardard ioctl for waiting vsync, already used by some userspace, so add it as an alias for OMAPFB_WAITFORVSYNC. Signed-off-by: Grazvydas Ignotas <redacted> --- Tomi, I know I already sent this earlier, but as now FBIO_WAITFORVSYNC is a standard ioctl, so why don't we support it? I know you might not like that omapfb_ioctl will have one standard ioctl handler between all OMAP specific ones, but that's something plenty of other drivers do.One could ask that if FBIO_WAITFORSYNC is a standard ioctl, why do we need to handle it in omapfb's custom ioctl function =). But I think this is fine, I'll apply.
[Hiremath, Vaibhav] I still think we should mark the old (custom) interface as deprecated and add new standard ioctl interface here, so that in the future we can remove custom one. Thanks, Vaibhav
