My stub isn't your totally fb in the stub, we are only going to put
initially interrupt handling, suspend/resume, PCI driver handling and some
arbitration into the stub... this is similiar to what was going into the
vga class stuff before,  myself and benh have been talking this over
and believe there is no point having mode setting or monitor detection in
a lowlevel stub,

You cannot do intelfb modesetting in the kernel, it needs VBE calls no-one
is going to put those near the kernel hopefully...

I'm trying to decide if the stub framework is worth the hassle of making
generic or whether doing it for each driver is probably less trouble...
