Subject: EFI Framebuffer Documentation

Documentation/fb/efifb.txt states that "efifb is only for EFI booted
Intel Macs." I took this to mean that CONFIG_FB_EFI may also only be for
Intel Macs. Turns out I need CONFIG_FB_EFI for video console output on
my Atom EFI booted development boards.

Does this mean efifb.txt needs to be updated, or are the two actually
referring to different things?

Thanks,
