[PATCH v3 0/7] Support GEM object mappings from I/O memory

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 them correctly. This enables I/O-memory operations on all framebuffers
that require and support them.

Patches #1 and #2 prepare VRAM helpers and TTM for the changes in patch
#3. Patch #3 updates GEM's vmap/vunmap callback to forward instances of
type struct dma_buf_map. While the patch touches many files throughout the
DRM modules, the applied changes are mostly trivial interface fixes.

Patch #4 updates GEM's internal vmap/vunmap functions to forward struct
dma_buf_map.

Patches #5 and #6 convert DRM clients and generic fbdev emulation to use
struct dma_buf_map. Updating the fbdev framebuffer will select the correct
functions, either for system or I/O memory.

The patch set is just enough to fix the bochs issue on sparc64 and a
correct way. Patch #7 updates the TODO list with ideas for further
improvements

v3:
	* recreate the whole patchset on top of struct dma_buf_map

v2:
	* RFC patchset

Thomas Zimmermann (7):
  drm/vram-helper: Remove invariant parameters from internal kmap
    function
  drm/ttm: Add ttm_kmap_obj_to_dma_buf_map() for type conversion
  drm/gem: Use struct dma_buf_map in GEM vmap ops and convert GEM
    backends
  drm/gem: Update internal GEM vmap/vunmap interfaces to use struct
    dma_buf_map
  drm/gem: Store client buffer mappings as struct dma_buf_map
  drm/fb_helper: Support framebuffers in I/O memory
  drm/todo: Update entries around struct dma_buf_map
