Re: [PATCH] Add framebuffer device driver for gamecube/wii, incorporating Farter's work.

I'm not too familiar with DRM, unfortunately, so I can't give you a
great answer.

My current aim is just to get this and the other gc-linux patches into
upstream before they begin to rot.

But, I'd be happy to look into porting this to DRM after it's merged though.

Just upstreaming the gc/wii framebuffer driver from gc-linux, and
incorporates Farter's patch to solve the color issue. See
https://fartersoft.com/blog/2011/06/22/hacking-up-an-rgb-framebuffer-driver-for-wii-linux/
and https://fartersoft.com/blog/2011/07/31/hacking-up-an-rgb-framebuffer-driver-for-wii-linux-take-two/.
Just for the record:
Is there a reason why it wasn't (or can't be) ported to DRM ?
Looking at the patch (and the hardware behind it) I do see various reasons,
but I'd like to hear it from you...
