The functions fb_read() and fb_write in fbmem.c assume that the framebuffer
is in IO memory. However, we have 3 drivers (hecubafb, arcfb, and vfb)
where the framebuffer is allocated from system RAM (via vmalloc). Using
__raw_read/__raw_write (fb_readl/fb_writel) for these drivers is
illegal, especially in other platforms.
Create file read and write methods for these types of drivers. These are
named fb_sys_read() and fb_sys_write().

It is unnecessary to pass struct file to fb_read() and fb_write() in struct
fb_ops. For consistency with the other methods, pass struct fb_info instead.

The generic drawing functions (cfbimgblt, cfbcopyarea, cfbfillrect) assume
that the framebuffer is in IO memory. However, we have 3 drivers (hecubafb,
arcfb, and vfb) where the framebuffer is allocated from system RAM (via
vmalloc). Using _raw_read/write and family for these drivers (as used in
the cfb* functions) is illegal, especially in other platforms.
Create 3 new drawing functions, based almost entirely from the original
except that the framebuffer memory is assumed to be in system RAM.
These are named as sysimgblt, syscopyarea, and sysfillrect.

Fix a long-standing bug. The mask used to detect a 100Mhz or 133Mhz chipset
is incorrect. (The only side effect of this bug is that it will choose an
incorrect watermark).

If the current framebuffer console is rotated (rotate != 0), doing an
"fbset -a" will corrupt the current console. Fix by updating the current
console only after all non-visible consoles have been updated.

Allow the saving and restoration of VGA text mode. The state is saved on the
first open and restored on the last close. Because of the VGA registers are
linearly mapped to the MMIO space, MMIO access is used which is not limited to
X86 platforms nor to the primary display device.
An echo 0 > /sys/class/vtconsole/vtcon1/bind will convert the display from
graphics to text mode.
