Michel Dänzer f6815cb68b fbdevhw: Consolidate modeset ioctl calling, report failure if it modifies mode.
The fbdev API allows the driver to 'accept' modes it doesn't really support by
modifying it to the nearest supported mode. Without this check, e.g. vesafb
would appear to accept all modes, even though it actually can't set any modes
other than the bootup mode at all.

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.
