Implement deferred fbdev setup in the helper
--------------------------------------------
Many (especially embedded drivers) want to delay fbdev setup until there's a
real screen plugged in. This is to avoid the dreaded fallback to the low-res
fbdev default. Many drivers have a hacked-up (and often broken) version of this,
better to do it once in the shared helpers. Thierry has a patch series, but that
one needs to be rebased and final polish applied.
