Enrico Weigelt, metux IT consult f446235b71 treewide: replace xnfcalloc() calls by XNFcallocarray() This has been nothing but an alias for two decades now (somewhere in R6.6), so there doesn't seem to be any practical need for this indirection. The macro still needs to remain, as long as (external) drivers still using it.

README

This is a submodule to access linux framebuffer devices.
It is supported to work as helper module (like vgahw)
for the chipset drivers.  There are functions for
saving/restoring/setting video modes, set palette entries,
and a few more helper functions.  Some of them can be
hooked directly into ScrnInfoRec.

In ../drivers/fbdev is a "chipset" driver.  It is a simple,
non-accelerated and hardware-independent driver which works
on top of this fbdevhw submodule.
