[PATCH -mm] uvesafb: Don't access VGA registers directly when running on non-x86
The VGA registers are only available at their legacy IO locations on x86. Don't try to access them when running on other arches. Note that the code accessing them directly is just an optimization (limits slow BIOS function calls). We don't lose any functionality by using BIOS calls instead of it on non-x86.

I have little interest in adding a stub vga.h on my architectures to support a driver that in practice works on nothing but x86. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
[PATCH -mm] uvesafb: Don't access VGA registers directly when running on non-x86
The VGA registers are only available at their legacy IO locations on x86. Don't try to access them when running on other arches. Note that the code accessing them directly is just an optimization (limits slow BIOS function calls). We don't lose any functionality by using BIOS calls instead of it on non-x86.
