There is more to fbdev than mode setting. It is also how non-x86
platforms achieve their boot display. How will boot display be handled
with the your design? What about console display on non-x86 platforms?
Loading both fbdev and the new code puts us right back into the
multiple driver fight we have today.
If the kernel graphics system is going to get rewritten the rewrite
needs to address all of the existing problems.
We already have fbcon working perfectly on top of this layer... so you
might want to actually look at the developed code..
