Some of fb drivers uses atomic_t in bad manner, since there are still some
race-prone gaps. Use mutexes to protect open/close code sections with
ref_count testing and finally use simple uint.

Some time before 2.6.15, a third DDC channel was added to i810fb. On
systems where these ddc pins are not connected, the probe takes about 10
seconds.
Add a boot/module option for i810fb to explicitly probe for the 3rd ddc bus
if needed.

- The functions for reading the 1st and 2nd bus are essentially the same,
except for the register. Consolidate them all.
- According to Nicolas Boichat, there is an undocumented 3rd i2c bus for
attaching daughter cards. Add support for this.

Add ddc/i2c support for i810fb. This will allow the driver to get display
information, especially for monitors with fickle timings. The i2c support
depends on CONFIG_FB_I810_GTF.
Changed __init* to __devinit*

This patch removes drivers that have hardware cursors from calling the
software cursor code. Also if the driver sets a no hardware cursor flag
then the driver reports a error it someone attempts to use the cursor.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
