fbdev: remove cyblafb driver
A tridentfb driver has all the functionality of the cyblafb driver without the bugs of the latter. Changes to the tridentfb driver: - FBINFO_READS_FAST added to the tridentfb. The cyblafb used a blitter for scrolling which is faster than color expansion on Cyberblade chipsets. The blitter is slower on a discrete Blade3D core. Use the blitter for scrolling in the tridentfb only for integrated Blade3D cores. Now, scrolling speed is about equal for the tridentfb and the cyblafb. - a copyright notice addition is done on request of Jani Monoses (the first author of the tridentfb). Tested on AGP Blade3D card and PCChips M787CLR motherboard: VIA C3 cpu + VT8601 north bridge (aka Cyberblade/i1).

1TODO / Missing features
2=======================
3
4Verify LCD stuff "stretch" and "center" options are
5 completely untested ... this code needs to be
6 verified. As I don't have access to such
7 hardware, please contact me if you are
8 willing run some tests.
9
10Interlaced video modes The reason that interleaved
11 modes are disabled is that I do not know
12 the meaning of the vertical interlace
13 parameter. Also the datasheet mentions a
14 bit d8 of a horizontal interlace parameter,
15 but nowhere the lower 8 bits. Please help
16 if you can.
17
18low-res double scan modes Who needs it?
19
20accelerated color blitting Who needs it? The console driver does use color
21 blitting for nothing but drawing the penguine,
22 everything else is done using color expanding
23 blitting of 1bpp character bitmaps.
24
25ioctls Who needs it?
26
27TV-out Will be done later. Use "vga= " at boot time
28 to set a suitable video mode.
29
30??? Feel free to contact me if you have any
31 feature requests
