What do you think about introducing read and write callbacks for GEM
objects? Like this:

  int drm_gem_read(struct drm_gem_object *gbo, size_t off, size_t len,
void *buf);

  int drm_gem_write(struct drm_gem_object *gbo, size_t off, size_t len,
const void *buf);

The common case would by memcpy, but GEM implementations could provide
their own thing. The fbdev blit function would look like

  vaddr = drm_gem_vmap(gbo)
  if (IS_ERR(vaddr))
    return

  for (each line) {
    drm_gem_write(gbo, gbo_line_offset, line_size, src)
    gbo_line_offset = /* next line */
    src = /* next line */
  }

  drm_gem_vunmap(gbo);

The whole mess about I/O access would be self-contained.
