No! We are using ioctl interface of this driver in many video rendering applications on overlay planes on huge number of boards. So, please don't remove it.Ok, I had no idea anyone was using it. Can you email me details about how you use the ioctl interface? If I can't remove it, maybe I can clean it up.
Following DIU specific ioctls are used: MFB_SET_CHROMA_KEY MFB_SET_PIXFMT MFB_GET_PIXFMT MFB_SET_AOID MFB_GET_AOID MFB_GET_ALPHA MFB_SET_ALPHA Other ioctls can be removed. I'm not sure if someone uses FBIOGET_GWINFO. If there are no objections from other people, it can also be dropped.
