Subject: [PATCH v3 05/12] drm/fbdev: Store fbdev module parameters in separate file
> 
> The fbdev code does not really belong into drm_kms_helper.ko. But
> there are module parameters that control the behavior of the fbdev
> emulation. It is not possible to remove them from the module without
> breaking someone's installation.
> 
> Therefore move the fbdev module parameters to drm_kms_helper_common.c,
> so that the actual fbdev implementaton can later go into a separate
> module.

LGTM.
