Struct fb_videomode is what exynos_drm_fimd driver uses internally. Sure 
it should use drm_mode, but this is not really related to this patch, 
because the code added in this patch only fills in the pdata struct, which 
for compatibility reasons (the same structure is used for both fbdev and 
drm drivers) contains struct fb_videomode.

OK, now after having a bit of fun, could we merge this patch to at least 
have usable support of parallel displays using this driver?

Best regards,
Tomasz
