DRM's fbdev console uses regular load and store operations to update framebuffer memory. The bochs driver on sparc64 requires the use of I/O-specific load and store operations. We have a workaround, but need a long-term solution to the problem.
This patchset changes GEM's vmap/vunmap interfaces to forward pointers of type struct dma_buf_map and updates the generic fbdev emulation to use them correctly. This enables I/O-memory operations on all framebuffers that require and support them.
Patches #1 and #2 prepare VRAM helpers and TTM for the changes in patch #3. Patch #3 updates GEM's vmap/vunmap callback to forward instances of type struct dma_buf_map. While the patch touches many files throughout the DRM modules, the applied changes are mostly trivial interface fixes.
Patch #4 updates GEM's internal vmap/vunmap functions to forward struct dma_buf_map.
Patches #5 and #6 convert DRM clients and generic fbdev emulation to use struct dma_buf_map. Updating the fbdev framebuffer will select the correct functions, either for system or I/O memory.
The patch set is just enough to fix the bochs issue on sparc64 and a correct way. Patch #7 updates the TODO list with ideas for further improvements
v3: * recreate the whole patchset on top of struct dma_buf_map
v2: * RFC patchset
