[Xen-devel] [GIT PULL] Xen fbdev fixups



Hi Linus,

Here are some small updates to fbdev to make the Xen fbdev driver work properly. The bulk of the change is to make sure we only set VM_IO on vmas which actually map device memory, and not set it on plain old vmalloc memory. This is necessary in Xen, because we end up using that flag to determine whether the ptes are mapping real machine physical memory or guest pseudo-physical memory.

We also do this on the other fbdev drivers which allocate vmalloc framebuffers for consistency.

Thanks,
    J
