similar to: [PATCH 0/5] Unmappable DRM client buffers for fbdev emulation

DRM client buffers are permanently mapped throughout their lifetime. This prevents us from using generic framebuffer emulation for devices with small dedicated video memory, such as ast or mgag200. With fb buffers permanently mapped, such devices often won't have enough space left to display other content (e.g., X11). This patch set introduces unmappable DRM client buffers for framebuffer

Several simple framebuffer drivers copy most of the TTM code from each other. The implementation is always the same; except for the name of some data structures. As recently discussed, this patch set provides generic memory-management code for simple framebuffers with dedicated video memory. It further converts the respective drivers to the generic code. The shared code is basically the same

DRM's fbdev console uses regular load and store operations to update framebuffer memory. The bochs driver on sparc64 requires the use of I/O-specific load and store operations. We have a workaround, but need a long-term solution to the problem. This patchset changes GEM's vmap/vunmap interfaces to forward pointers of type struct dma_buf_map and updates the generic fbdev emulation to use

This patch replaces ast's framebuffer console with DRM's generic implememtation. All respective code is being removed from the driver. The console is set up with a shadow buffer. The actual buffer object is not permanently pinned in video ram, but just another buffer object that the driver moves in and out of vram as necessary. The driver's function ast_crtc_do_set_base() used to
