 "This tree includes preparatory patches for SimpleDRM driver support,
  by David Herrmann.  They clean up x86 framebuffer support by creating
  simplefb devices wherever possible.  More background can be found at

+	bool "Mark VGA/VBE/EFI FB as generic system framebuffer"
+	help
+	  Firmwares often provide initial graphics framebuffers so the BIOS,
+	  bootloader or kernel can show basic video-output during boot for
+	  user-guidance and debugging. Historically, x86 used the VESA BIOS
+	  Extensions and EFI-framebuffers for this, which are mostly limited
+	  to x86.
+	  This option, if enabled, marks VGA/VBE/EFI framebuffers as generic
+	  framebuffers so the new generic system-framebuffer drivers can be
+	  used on x86. If the framebuffer is not compatible with the generic
+	  modes, it is adverticed as fallback platform framebuffer so legacy
+	  drivers like efifb, vesafb and uvesafb can pick it up.
+	  If this option is not selected, all system framebuffers are always
+	  marked as fallback platform framebuffers as usual.
+
+	  Note: Legacy fbdev drivers, including vesafb, efifb, uvesafb, will
+	  not be able to pick up generic system framebuffers if this option
+	  is selected. You are highly encouraged to enable simplefb as
+	  replacement if you select this option. simplefb can correctly deal
+	  with generic system framebuffers. But you should still keep vesafb
+	  and others enabled as fallback if a system framebuffer is
+	  incompatible with simplefb.
+
+	  If unsure, say Y.
