[PATCH v3 07/43] fbdev/deferred-io: Provide get_page hook in struct fb_deferred_io

Add a callback for drivers to provide framebuffer pages to fbdev's
deferred-I/O helpers. Implementations need to acquire a reference on
the page before returning it. Returning NULL generates a SIGBUS
signal.

This will be useful for DRM's fbdev emulation with GEM-shmem buffer
objects.

v2:
- fix typo in commit message (Javier)
