fb_notifier_call_chain() is called with info->lock held, i.e. in
do_fb_ioctl() => FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO => fb_set_var() and the some
notifier callbacks, like fbcon_event_notify(), try to re-acquire
info->lock again.
Remove the lock/unlock_fb_info() in all the framebuffer notifier
callbacks' and be sure to always call fb_notifier_call_chain() with
info->lock held.

Avoid calling copy_from/to_user() with fb_info->lock mutex held in fbmem

fb_mmap() is called under mm->mmap_sem (A) held, that also acquires
fb_info->lock (B); fb_ioctl() takes fb_info->lock (B) and does
copy_from/to_user() that might acquire mm->mmap_sem (A), causing a
deadlock.
NOTE: it doesn't push down the fb_info->lock in each own driver's
fb_ioctl(), so there are still potential deadlocks elsewhere.

The code to draw penguin logos always uses some properties of the main logo.
This is incorrect if additional logos (CONFIG_FB_LOGO_EXTRA=y) have different
types than the main logo, which causes corrupted logo images.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12181
Hence skip additional logos that are not compatible with the main logo.
Technically, it's possible to draw multiple logos of different types on
truecolor displays, but this would complicate the (already quite
complicated) logo drawing code even more.

commit 3e680aae4e ("fb: convert
lock/unlock_kernel() into local fb mutex") introduced several deadlocks
in the fb_compat_ioctl() path, as mutex_lock() doesn't allow recursion,
unlike lock_kernel(). This broke frame buffer applications on 64-bit
systems with a 32-bit userland.
commit 120a37470c ("framebuffer compat_ioctl
deadlock") fixed one of the deadlocks.
This patch fixes the remaining deadlocks:
- Revert commit 120a37470c,
- Extract the core logic of fb_ioctl() into a new function do_fb_ioctl(),
- Change all callsites of fb_ioctl() where info->lock is already held to
call do_fb_ioctl() instead,
- Add sparse annotations to all routines that take info->lock.

This allows for proper console unregistration via the VT layer, and updates
the FB layer to use it. This makes debugging new console drivers much easier,
since you can properly clean them up before unloading.
[adaplas]
unregister_framebuffer() is typically called as part of the driver's
module_exit(). Doing so otherwise will freeze the machine as the VT layer is
holding reference counts on fbcon, and fbcon on the driver. With this change,
it allows unregister_framebuffer() to be called safely anywhere as needed.
Additions from the original: If multiple drivers are used by fbcon, and if
one of them unregisters, a driver will take over the consoles vacated by the
outgoing one (via set_con2fb_map). Once only the outgoing driver remains,
then fbcon will unbind from the VT layer (if CONFIG_HW_CONSOLE_UNBINDING is
set to y).
It is important that these drivers implement fb_open() and fb_release()
just to ensure that no other process is using the driver. Likewise, these
drivers _must_ check the return value of unregister_framebuffer().

Check if the mode can properly display the screen. This will be needed by
drivers where the capability is not constant with each mode. The function
fb_set_var() will query fbcon the requirement, then it will query the driver
(via a new hook fb_get_caps()) its capability. If the driver's capability
cannot handle fbcon's requirement, then fb_set_var() will fail.
For example, if a particular driver supports 2 modes where:
mode1 = can only display 8x16 bitmaps
mode2 = can display any bitmap
then if current mode = mode2 and current font = 12x22
fbset <mode1> /* mode1 cannot handle 12x22 */

It was always intended for the logo to be drawn only if both fbcon and the
driver that is mapped to it are both compiled statically. Currently, if fbcon
is loaded prior to the driver, the logo is not shown. Reverse the order, and
the code may attempt to draw the logo which is __initdata. By accident, this
bug is rarely seen because this method of loading the modules is not common
and secondly, a code in fb_prepare_logo() that checks the height of the logo
(now a random value) rarely succeeds.
Fix by drawing the logo only if both fbcon and the driver are statically

After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.
To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.
Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all

introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

The backlight and lcd subsystems can be notified by the framebuffer layer
of blanking events. However, these subsystems, as a whole, can function
independently from the framebuffer layer. But in order to enable to the
lcd and backlight subsystems, the framebuffer has to be compiled also,
effectively sucking in a huge amount of unneeded code.
To prevent dependency problems, separate out the framebuffer notification
mechanism from the framebuffer layer and permanently link it to the kernel.
