Thomas Zimmermann 6121cd9ef9 fbdev: Move I/O read and write code into helper functions
Move the existing I/O read and write code for I/O memory into
the new helpers fb_cfb_read() and fb_cfb_write(). Make them the
default fp_ops. No functional changes.

In the near term, the new functions will be useful to the DRM
subsystem, which currently provides it's own implementation. It
can then use the shared code. In the longer term, it might make
sense to revise the I/O helper's default status and make them
opt-in by the driver. Systems that don't use them would not
contain the code any longer.

v2:
	* add detailed commit message (Javier)
	* rename fb_cfb_() to fb_io_() (Geert)
	* add fixes that got lost while moving the code (Geert)

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
