Quite the horror show. I wonder how hard it would be to just have each
driver that can use defio provide a mmap hook that either dispatches
to the defio one or the native one depending if defio is used or not...

A few drivers at least seem to always use defio so those should be
trivial. Some others seem to make the decision dynamically, which
would require custom .mmap(). Though I suppose all of them could just
be of the form
foo_mmap_wrap{)
{
	if (info->defio)
		defio_mmap()
	else
		foo_mmap();
}

Hmm. Actually is .fb_mmap() called from anywhere but fb_mmap()? If not
we could just shove the defio check there? Or if it's called from
several places we could try to wrap all calls in _fb_mmap() or somesuch.
