Hi Bartlomiej,

After merging the fbdev tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

ERROR: "dummycon_unregister_output_notifier" [drivers/video/fbdev/core/fb.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "dummycon_register_output_notifier" [drivers/video/fbdev/core/fb.ko] undefined!

Caused by commit

83d83bebf401 ("console/fbcon: Add support for deferred console takeover")

I have reverted that commit for today.

I note that this commit is in the drm-misc tree as well.

Ugh, my bad. I did not take the fb code being modular into account
here. I will submit a follow up patch fixing this today.

Regards,

Hans
