The drm_gem_shmem_funcs_fbdev is the same than drm_gem_shmem_funcs but
.mmap and .vm_ops callbacks. Maybe adding a macro to declare these two
struct drm_gem_object_funcs could make easier to maintain it long term ?

Same question than in patch #6, maybe

                if (defined(CONFIG_DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION) && fbdev) ?

I believe the correct errno code here should be -ENOTSUPP.

I see this (vmf->address - vma->vm_start) calculation in many places of
this series. Maybe we could add a macro to calculate the offset instead ?
