Subject[PATCH 3.17 110/122] drm/i915: Kick fbdev before vgacon
Date
3.17-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>

commit 0485c9dc24ec0939b42ca5104c0373297506b555 upstream.

It's magic, but it seems to work.

This fixes a regression introduced in

commit 1bb9e632a0aeee1121e652ee4dc80e5e6f14bcd2
Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>

drm/i915: Only unbind vgacon, not other console drivers

My best guess is that the vga fbdev driver falls over if we rip out
parts of vgacon. Hooray.
