Take a look at commit a100501212f2e26bb6d70bfb5c55eefd90e22b65 for the
initial conversion please (use -b -w to cut down on whitespace changes
shown). Warning: lots of formatting changes make this quite hard to follow.

I'm sure I looked at changes to amifb.c to figure out how the fbdev
interface had changed. Haven't found that in current git history but it
should be in the full history tree.

Finn's fixes actually, and no guarantee what I have in mind will
actually work.

I won't be back in Europe before July next...

Cheers,
