[PATCH 1/3] lxfb: properly alloc cmap in all cases and don't leak the memory

Hi Andrew,

Can you please replace Marco's patch with this one?  Marco, can you please
verify that this fixes your DirectFB issues?  Linux-fb folks, can you please
verify that we should always have a cmap allocated (if so, there are other
drivers that need fixing as well)?




From: Marco La Porta <marco-laporta at tiscali.it>

We weren't properly allocating the cmap for depths greater than 8bpp,
which caused pain for things like DirectFB.  Also, we never freed the
cmap memory upon module unload..

[dilinger at debian.org: dropped unnecessary code and clean up patch]
[dilinger at debian.org: add error checking and handling]
