multiple framebuffer drm maps

Subject: [PATCH] drm: Add flag for multiple framebuffer support

Do not ignore the offset when looking for existing framebuffer maps
if the new _DRM_MATCH_FB_OFFSET flag is passed to drm_addmap_core.

This was what I had in mind. Probably controversial to add a new
flag for this, so more elegant ideas are welcome.
