Hi Linus,

please pull the fbdev fixes and updates for 6.16-rc1:

Many small but important fixes for special cases in the fbdev, fbcon and vgacon
code, some smaller code cleanups in the nvidiafb, arkfb, atyfb and viafb drivers
and two spelling fixes.

Thanks!
Helge

PS: All patches have been sitting in for-next for at least two days (the
majority of patches since weeks). I did a rebase because fast-forward merging
with head didn't work.
