We have managed to ascertain that all users of the old FBDEV
code that are out of tree are now gone.

The new DRM driver can be found in drivers/gpu/drm/pl111/.

The remaining out of tree user was the ARM FVP emulation
platform, running Android. Thanks to changes in Android
versions 13 and 14, Android can now use the DRM driver when
being emulated under FVP. Some final patches are being put
in place to make it fully featured.

This is essentially a revert of the partial revert in
commit 112c35237c72 ("Partially revert "video: fbdev: amba-clcd: Retire elder CLCD driver"")

Thanks!
