Subject: [PATCH 4/4] docs: fb: Remove vesafb scrollback boot option
Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2020 15:56:15 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <799e4d6ecca9aab53e823fc0001887d728be0aa5.1600333774.git.unixbhaskar@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1600333774.git.unixbhaskar@gmail.com>
In commit 50145474f6ef ("fbcon: remove soft scrollback code"), the
framebuffer scrollback mode was removed, but the documentation was not
updated. Properly update the documentation by removing the option that
is no longer present,remove the scrollback option.
