Subject: [GIT PULL] additional fbdev fixes and updates for v7.2-rc1
Date: Sat, 27 Jun 2026 19:50:23 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <akANXx5Fr4vBRhwg@carbonx1> (raw)

Hi Linus,

please pull the second half of fbdev fixes for this merge window:

Two patches for generic fbdev & fbcon code which fixes the handling of
modelists and prevents a potential NULL ptr dereference in the console code.

Five patches fix various missed cleanups in the error path of various fbdev
drivers.

And Uwe Kleine-König contributed one cleanup patch to use named initializers
in the vga16fb driver.

Thanks!
Helge
