Its in GregKH's staging tree or linux-next. It's basically what you've

gma500 tree.

No I think that one and the offset patch is it.

I do need to attack the fb console code next because I need a GEM object
as console in some cases and don't have enough virtual address space to
vremap it to look linear.
