That would fix the issue of fb->format being initialized to NULL yes.

However, I think the change should be in sync with the conversion of the
rest of the drivers in patchset [1]. IOW, what this patch is meant to
fix is that [1] missed converting the OMAP driver similarly to the other
drivers.

I think the change is equivalent to the above one-liner you suggest with
the following differences:

- omap_framebuffer_init() uses the drm_format_info passed down from either
  drm_internal_framebuffer_create(), or omap_fbdev_driver_fbdev_probe().
  In both cases the passed down format info matches what
  omap_framebuffer_init() would look up again.

- Skip the format == NULL check. format can't be NULL in any case, since
  that would have emitted a WARN already in drm_get_format_info() ->
  drm_format_info().
