In v3.3, the gma500 drm driver moved from staging to drm group by
Alan Cox's 3abcf41fb patch. the gma500 drm driver should control
brightness well and don't need gma500 stub driver anymore.
So, my plan is remove gma500 stub driver at Dec. 2012.

Why not just remove it right now as it's not needed at all anymore?

If there are distros not currently ahipping the GMA500 driver or people
updating old kernels using vesa and not having the right server bits it
might cause them problems - giving it 6 months isn't a bad idea IMHO
