Hi !

Current radeonfb is a bit "anal" about accepting CRT modes, it basically only
accepts modes that have the exact resolution, which tends to break with fbcon
on console switches as it provides "approximate" modes. This patch fixes it
by having the driver chose the closest possible mode instead of looking for
an exact match.

Hi Benjamin,

I tried your patch because on recent -mm kernels I see dirty colored columns during a few seconds when switching from X to radeon fbcon
(looks like remaining colors of X).
I don't know what visible effect your patch is supposed to have.
I didn't see any difference, but I doesn't seem to break anything.

Regards,
Brice
