This seems to fail on the autobuilder:

http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/d5c2cb226757a8bf90dac33bd04f87f325654220/build-end.log

For some odd reason, I don't see the davincifb.h file in the directfb
tarball, but it IS in git:

http://git.directfb.org/?p=core/DirectFB.git;a=tree;f=gfxdrivers/davinci;h=f0bd9ad6add6164f3a5e953d4eed4056315a2be2;hb=ab0d779e85cec22c7c2e7b8b6b1976049b1ba0f1

Is it working for you? If so, how?

  davincifb.h is the kernel header file which contains the davinci-specific
interfaces.  Unfortunately the davinci stuff doesn't get upstreamed, so you
need a davinci-specific fork like
git://arago-project.org/git/projects/linux-davinci.git

  I thought I tested it with davinci-specific kernel headers, but I can't
find the output anymore and I can't reproduce it...

  One solution would be to add includethe davincifb.h file with a buildroot
patch. However, I don't have a davinci board anymore so I can't even test
if it works.

  Therefore, I prefer to revert the patch.

  Regards,
  Arnout

Ok, if nobody else thinks otherwise then I'll revert.
