xen pvfb: Inhibit VM_IO flag to be set on vmalloc-ed framebuffers.
fb-defio: Inhibit VM_IO flag to be set on vmalloc-ed framebuffers.
fb-defio: If FBINFO_VIRTFB is defined, do not set VM_IO flag.
Fix toogle whether xenbus driver should be built as module or part of kernel.
Most users (except sh_mobile_lcdcfb.c) get their framebuffer from
vmalloc. Setting VM_IO is not necessary as the memory obtained
from vmalloc is System RAM type and is not susceptible to PCI memory
constraints.

Remove fb_save_state() and fb_restore_state operations from frame buffer layer.
They are used only in two drivers:
1. savagefb - and cause bug #11248
2. uvesafb
Usage of these operations is misunderstood in both drivers so kill these
operations, fix the bug #11248 and avoid confusion in the future.
Tested on Savage 3D/MV card and the patch fixes the bug #11248.
The frame buffer layer uses these funtions during switch between graphics
and text mode of the console, but these drivers saves state before
switching of the frame buffer (in the fb_open) and after releasing it (in
the fb_release). This defeats the purpose of these operations.

Add a mutex to avoid a circular locking problem between the mm layer
semaphore and fbdev ioctl mutex through the fb_mmap() call.
Also, add mutex to all places where smem_start and smem_len fields change
so the mutex inside the fb_mmap() is actually used. Changing of these
fields before calling the framebuffer_register() are not mutexed.
This is 2.6.31 material. It removes one lockdep (fb_mmap() and
register_framebuffer()) but there is still another one (fb_release() and
register_framebuffer()). It also cleans up handling of the smem_start and
smem_len fields used by mutexed section of the fb_mmap().

With KMS we have ran into an issue where we really want the KMS fb driver
to be the one running the console, so panics etc can be shown by switching
out of X etc.
However with vesafb/efifb built-in, we end up with those on fb0 and the
KMS fb driver on fb1, driving the same piece of hw, so this adds an fb
info flag to denote a firmware fbdev, and adds a new aperture base/size
range which can be compared when the hw drivers are installed to see if
there is a conflict with a firmware driver, and if there is the firmware
driver is unregistered and the hw driver takes over.
It uses new aperture_base/size members instead of comparing on the fix
smem_start/length, as smem_start/length might for example only cover the
first 1MB of the PCI aperture, and we could allocate the kms fb from 8MB
into the aperture, thus they would never overlap.

The documentation about the meaning of the color component bitfield
lengths in pseudocolor modes is inconsistent. Fix it, so that it
indicates the correct interpretation everywhere, i.e. that 1 << length is
the number of palette entries.

Avoid calling copy_from/to_user() with fb_info->lock mutex held in fbmem
ioctl().
fb_mmap() is called under mm->mmap_sem (A) held, that also acquires
fb_info->lock (B); fb_ioctl() takes fb_info->lock (B) and does
copy_from/to_user() that might acquire mm->mmap_sem (A), causing a
deadlock.
NOTE: it doesn't push down the fb_info->lock in each own driver's
fb_ioctl(), so there are still potential deadlocks elsewhere.

Change lock_kernel()/unlock_kernel() to local fb mutex. Each frame buffer
instance has its own mutex.
The one line try_to_load() function is unrolled to request_module() in two
places for readability.

Currently, linux/major.h defines a GRAPHDEV_MAJOR (29) that nobody uses,
and linux/fb.h defines the real FB_MAJOR (also 29), that only fbmem.c
needs. Drop GRAPHDEV_MAJOR from major.h, move FB_MAJOR definition from
fb.h to major.h, and fix fbmem.c to use major.h's definition.

Allow generic frame-buffer code to correctly write texts and blit images for
1, 2 and 4 bit per pixel frame-buffer organizations when pixels in bytes are
organized to in opposite order than bytes in long type.
Overhead should be reasonable. If option is not selected, than compiler
should eliminate completely all overhead.
The feature is disabled at compile time if CONFIG_FB_CFB_REV_PIXELS_IN_BYTE is
not set.

This allows for proper console unregistration via the VT layer, and updates
the FB layer to use it. This makes debugging new console drivers much easier,
since you can properly clean them up before unloading.
[adaplas]
unregister_framebuffer() is typically called as part of the driver's
module_exit(). Doing so otherwise will freeze the machine as the VT layer is
holding reference counts on fbcon, and fbcon on the driver. With this change,
it allows unregister_framebuffer() to be called safely anywhere as needed.
Additions from the original: If multiple drivers are used by fbcon, and if
one of them unregisters, a driver will take over the consoles vacated by the
outgoing one (via set_con2fb_map). Once only the outgoing driver remains,
then fbcon will unbind from the VT layer (if CONFIG_HW_CONSOLE_UNBINDING is
set to y).
It is important that these drivers implement fb_open() and fb_release()
just to ensure that no other process is using the driver. Likewise, these
drivers _must_ check the return value of unregister_framebuffer().
