+Garbage collect fbdev scrolling acceleration
+--------------------------------------------
+
+Scroll acceleration is disabled in fbcon by hard-wiring p->scrollmode =
+SCROLL_REDRAW. There's a ton of code this will allow us to remove:
+- lots of code in fbcon.c
+- a bunch of the hooks in fbcon_ops, maybe the remaining hooks could be called
+ directly instead of the function table (with a switch on p->rotate)
+- fb_copyarea is unused after this, and can be deleted from all drivers
+
+Note that not all acceleration code can be deleted, since clearing and cursor
+support is still accelerated, which might be good candidates for further
+deletion projects.
