[PATCH] firmware/sysfb: Fix wrong stride when bits-per-pixel is calculated

[Pierre Asselin]

(Okay, can't back out *all* of the first patch, just the assignment
to mode->stride.)

Anyway, here you go:

So it's the rsvd_size and rsvd_pos that are bogus.  The fix would be to:
  1) believe si->lfb_depth
  2) fill with ones a bitmask of size si->lfb_depth
  3) clear chunks of bits based on si->{red,green,blue,rsvd}_{size,pos}
  4) printk if the bitmask is not all zeros
  5) override rsvd_{size,pos} based on the bitmask
That way you know where the 'x' goes in xrgb.

Hm.  Could that fix my two boxes but cause a regression for someone else ?
What if _depth is low but the rsvd_ are right ?
Then _width and _linelength would be inconsistent with _depth but
consistent with the recomputed bits_per_pixel ?  How many ways can the
firmware lie ?

We need more testers, don't we ?
