[PATCH 2/2] drm/todo: Clarify situation around fbdev and defio

[Thomas Zimmermann]

The TODO item is misleading and makes it seem that fbdev emulation
cannot be used with SHMEM. Rephrase the text to describe the current
situation more correctly.

 The defio support code in the fbdev core has some very specific requirements,

 Possible solution would be to write our own defio mmap code in the drm fbdev
 emulation. It would need to fully wrap the existing mmap ops, forwarding
