Hi Mikulas,

The patch also removes the references to fb_memmove in the code that is
commented out because fb_memmove was removed from framebuffer subsystem.
I'd leave it as-is. Using plain memmove() is not correct, as it should operate
on MMIO space, not RAM. On x86 it works with memmove(), though, but
not on all architectures.
