Subject: [PATCH] fbcon: remove restriction on margin color
Date: Wed, 23 Aug 2017 14:18:53 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1503515933-8045-1-git-send-email-david@lechnology.com> (raw)
This removes the restriction on the value range of the fbcon=margin:
parameter. The color value really depends on the driver being used.
Signed-off-by: David Lechner <david@lechnology.com>

This is a follow up to "fbcon: add fbcon=margin:<color> command line option".
