I noticed that the vga16 framebuffer driver returns a smem_len of 65535. Shouldn't that be 65536 ? (Realmode Segment A000-AFFF)
I already wrote about this to Ben Pfaff <pfaffen@msu.edu>, who is listed at the top of this file, some time ago, to which he ansered "I think you're right.".
I recently looked at the source of a newer tree again to check wether he did forward it, but appearently he did not. After looking at the MAINTAINERS File again I found you being listed for "SVGA HANDLING", so I'm sending this to you.
Should I forward this to Linus & linux-kernel ?
