Subject: [PATCH 3.12 21/72] fbdev: Make the switch from generic to native driver less alarming

From: Adam Jackson <ajax@...hat.com>

3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit 13ba0ad4490c3dd08b15c430a7a01c6fb45d5bce upstream.

Calling this "conflicting" just makes people think there's a problem
when there's not.
