Re: PATCH: move soft_cursor into fbconsole

[Jon Smirl <jonsmirl@gmail.com>]

Why are you trying to preserve all of the ".fb_cursor = soft_cursor,"
assignments in the drivers? What purpose do they serve that can't be
handled by a simple test like this:

Then any in-kernel user does this:
      /* First try the hardware cursor */
      if (info->fbops->fb_cursor)
              err = info->fbops->fb_cursor(info, &cursor);
      /* if that doesn't exist or didn't work, use the software one */
      if (err)
              soft_cursor(info, &cursor);
