Subject: UAPI: The end is nigh!


Hi Linus,

You'll be glad to here that the end is nigh for the UAPI patches.  Only the
fbdev/framebuffer piece remains now that the SCSI stuff has gone in.

As far as I can tell, no changes have been merged that affect the UAPI parts
of the include/video headers, so my previous request should still be good to
go.

David

Here are the UAPI disintegration bits for the fbdev drivers.  It appears that
Florian hasn't had time to deal with my patch, but back in December he did say
he didn't mind if I pushed it forward.  I recommend pulling it after any other
fbdev stuff and I can easily regenerate it if necessary.
