Shrug. I've decided I no longer care. There is very little common data
in sa1100fb_info. In fact, from my point of view as the previous driver
maintainer, I'd say that all the data within sa1100fb_info is hardware
dependent, with the exception of the fb_info at the start, which is
placed there to provide a convienent and FAST way to get at the data.
However, since you've decided you know better, I leave this driver
completely in your hands to fuck up.
