Some pieces of userspace like debian-installer expect to find the fb0 driver name by readlink-ing /sys/class/graphics/fb0/device/driver but this was broken with amba-clcd as it sets up fb_info manually and missed the .device parent pointer.

I'll apply it barring any objections from Russell.
BTW this should be "Loïc Minier" not "Lo??c Minier" The original email was fine with proper UTF-8 in that regard. Maybe you should have a look at your MUA config so the resulting patch log going into git is not dammaged. Nicolas
