This is a major update to the cyblafb framebuffer driver. Most
of the stuff has been tested in the mm tree.
Main advantages:
============
- vxres > xres support
- ywrap and xpan support
- much faster for almost all modes (e.g. 1280x1024-16bpp
draws more than 41 full screens of text instead of about 25
full screens of text per second on authors Epia 5000)
- module init/exit code fixed
- bugs triggered by console rotation fixed
- lots of minor improvements
- startup modes suitable for high performance scrolling
in all directions
This diff also contains a lot of white space fixes.
No side effects are possible, only one single graphics core is affected.

=====

|
|
CyBlaFB is much faster than tridentfb and vesafb. Compare the performance data
|
|
for mode 1280x1024-[8,16,32]@61 Hz.

Test 1: Cat a file with 2000 lines of 0 characters.
|
|
Test 2: Cat a file with 2000 lines of 80 characters.
|
|
Test 3: Cat a file with 2000 lines of 160 characters.

All values show system time use in seconds, kernel 2.6.12 was used for
|
|
the measurements. 2.6.13 is a bit slower, 2.6.14 hopefully will include a
|
|
patch that speeds up kernel bitblitting a lot ( > 20%).
