You are right, I apologize. The correct path is Documentation/gpu/todo.rst.
I will double-check all references before submitting next time.

I cross-compiled cobalt_lcdfb against cobalt_defconfig (MIPS) and
clps711x-fb against clps711x_defconfig (ARM). Neither platform has a
QEMU machine available, so I was not able to do runtime testing.

I understand that is not ideal. The changes replace ioremap() with
devm_platform_get_and_ioremap_resource(), which is already widely used
across the tree and handles failure cleanly, but I can understand that 
compile-only testing is not a substitute for hardware validation on
resource-sensitive paths.

I have not been able to find a suitable runtime environment for either
platform. If you know of one, I have no problem validating these changes
properly before they go further.

Thanks,
Amit
