    For what fbdev operations will acceleration be used?

    The larger patch gets a bunch of rejects against Linus's current tree.
    Please update and resend.

    Please send the patches via email, too. That way lots of people help to
    check your code and it's considerably less fiddly at my end.

    Canonical form is one patch per email, with the changelog at the top of the
    email, with a useful Subject: which describes the patch. Each patch email
    will have a different subject, and that subject ain't the name of the file
    which holds the patch! The patch will be in the body of the email of your
    MUA is halfway sane. As an attachment if not.

    Thanks.
