This was discussed when the series was originally posted. The display
mode binding was still floating around with V1 suggestions so I had to
make a best-guess as to how it would end up.

Without it, the patch will break support for 95% of users as framebuffer
is the only output device. 

Given that I can't fix it as the videomode helper patch is still getting
revisions (Last I saw v4 had outstanding queries against it) I guess it
will have to wait until next time around.
