Subject: omapdss: Division by zero in kernel

Hello,

when on N900 (real HW or qemu) I run this command

/ # echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/omapdss/overlay0/enabled && echo 0 > /sys/class/graphics/fb0/size

then kernel crash with this error message

/ # [   29.904113] Division by zero in kernel.

I suspect that problem is in omapdss.

I do not know if size 0 make sense, but Maemo userspace is calling above
commands and on Nokia's 2.6.28 kernel there is no crash or error message.

IMHO Division by zero in kernel should not be there even if userspace
call "incorrect" command.
