A pointer to cfag12864bfb_probe is passed to the core via
platform_driver_register and so the function must not disappear when the
.init sections are discarded. Otherwise (if also having HOTPLUG=y)
unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an
oops as does a device being registered late.
An alternative to this patch is using platform_driver_probe instead of
platform_driver_register plus removing the pointer to the probe function
from the struct platform_driver.

Because the framebuffer memory is allocated system RAM, use the sys_ drawing
libraries. It also fixes the following compile error:
LD .tmp_vmlinux1
drivers/built-in.o:(.data+0x8b48): undefined reference to `cfb_fillrect'
drivers/built-in.o:(.data+0x8b50): undefined reference to `cfb_copyarea'
drivers/built-in.o:(.data+0x8b58): undefined reference to `cfb_imageblit'

Use fb_sys_read/write for the same reasons as above.

The problem comes when ks0108/cfag12864b are built-in and no parallel port is
present. ks0108_init() is called first, as it should be, but fails to load
(as there is no parallel port to use).
After that, cfag12864b_init() gets called, without knowing anything about
ks0108 failed, and calls ks0108_writecontrol(), which dereferences an
uninitialized pointer.
Init order is OK, I think. The problem is how to stop cfag12864b_init() being
called if ks0108 failed to load. modprobe does it for us, but, how when
built-in?

Add support for auxiliary displays, the ks0108 LCD controller, the
cfag12864b LCD and adds a framebuffer device: cfag12864bfb.
- Add a "auxdisplay/" folder in "drivers/" for auxiliary display
drivers.
- Add support for the ks0108 LCD Controller as a device driver. (uses
parport interface)
- Add support for the cfag12864b LCD as a device driver. (uses ks0108
LCD Controller driver)
- Add a framebuffer device called cfag12864bfb. (uses cfag12864b LCD
driver)
- Add the usual Documentation, includes, Makefiles, Kconfigs,
MAINTAINERS, CREDITS...
- Miguel Ojeda will maintain all the stuff above.
