I did that for 2.4, that's indeed an option. I suppose we are completely sure fbcon will never touch the framebuffer without going through those fb_ops (fb_fillrect, fb_imageblit, etc...) ? That mean we would still run a lot of useless code, but that's not too bad.
We still want the notification mecanism though, at least for proper refresh on wakeup, and other "clients" (the DRI comes to mind) may make good use of it as well.
Ben.
