Noralf - you had analyzed what drivers are (yet) to migrate to
to the common fbdev emulation.

rmada
gma500
amd
omapdrm
nouveau
i915
msm
tegra
exynos
radeon
rockchip

Maybe add this list to todo.rst - and if someone knows about it
we could have a small description what is required before a
driver can migrate.
I can cook up the patch if anyone thinks this is useful.
