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.
