Why do we even bother allocing the driver to compile for !ppc32
given that it clearly needs ppc-specific infrastructure?  The whole
idea of needing magic stubs for the COMPILE_TEST case seems rather
counterproduction.

Not a perfect solution but at the cost of 2 ifdefs it allows controlfb
driver to be compile tested on any arch.

Being able to compile test fbdev device drivers is really useful for
me and saves me a lot of time when doing fbdev maintainer duties.
