starts and we want to preserve the contents of the screen. That
feature is implemented by the X driver. So we need to figure how we
want to solve it.
Either way this fix should probably go into this RC series, not
sure if we need to send this to stable, since we are not leaking
data to userspace (check drm_mode_getfb), but we might as well.

kernels tho.
Libkms is not used anymore, at least not in the X server driver.
We need to change not only the X driver but also all the other
userspace components since at least libkms doesn't create shared
buffers.
And if the thing that is running before X is using fbdevOK. Then I suggest we just return 0 here, and go ahead with the current patch, and
this wont do much good either since fbdev is not backed by a
fb in the way other drivers do it.
