Hi Mikhail,

Looking at the posted code, it is the same code as hecubafb, renamed,
and with the 2-bit, partial update, and flash features added. The new
features are good but basically, its a fork of hecubafb. I'm
suggesting that rather than doing that, it would make more sense to
add those features to the existing hecubafb code. If any help is
needed in making that happen, please let me know, I'm happy to help.

Thanks,
jaya
