Even fbc isn't using this stuff anymore, so time to remove it. Cleaning up one small piece of the atomic conversion cruft at the time ... Quick explanation on why the plane->fb assignment is ok to delete: The core code takes care of the refcounting and legacy ->fb pointer updating, but drivers are allowed to update it ahead of time. Most legacy modeset drivers did that as part of their set_config callback (since that's how the legacy/crtc helpers worked). In i915 we only need that to make the fbc code happy. v2: don't nuke the assignement of intel_crtc->config, I accidentally set CI ablaze :-) Spotted by Maarten. And better explain why nuking the ->fb assignement shouldn't set off alarm bells.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
