The entire FB API is different. Take a look at the skeleton fb driver -- 
there are headers with each function explaining what it does. There may 
be some other documentation in the Documentation directory but I'm not 
sure. It's not as easy as updated Kconfig. But fortunately the au1100fb 
driver is a pretty simple driver so updating it shouldn't be that bad. I 
would suggest you follow the example of a 2.6 FB driver that has been 
updated to the new API.
