I'm not a fbdev expert and I'm not pretending to be one.

I decided to officially handle patches for fbdev after this
subsystem has been marked as Orphan in upstream tree (nobody
has volunteered to take over from Tomi after he sent his
resignation patch to a list a week earlier).

I won't have a lot of time even for this activity so help is
very much welcomed.

Best regards,
