staging/xgifb: Needs to be converted to a drm driver
The fbdev subsystem is closed for new drivers, those need to become drm ones (which generally results in smaller drivers nowadays, with the massive amounts of shared infrastructure and helper libraries drm has). Although given the lack of progress since 2010, maybe time to ditch it from staging outright?
