I would argue that the current code is more readable that your proposed change.

I agree that it's a no-op, but code is not just about functionality but also
readability, isn't it?
I won't argue with that, but the flag itself is wrong.
FBINFO_FLAG_DEFAULT is/was for struct fb_info.flags. You have struct
fb_videomode.flag. The valid flags for this field are at [1]. If
anything, the field could be initialized to FB_MODE_IS_UNKNOWN, which
has the same value.

[1] https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/include/linux/fb.h#L681
FB_MODE_IS_UNKNOWN sounds very reasonable to me. Would you agree using that instead?
Sure, I'll update the patch accordingly.

Best regards
Thomas

Also, I prefer "sh:" as the architecture prefix, not "arch/sh:".
Ok.
Thanks.
