ok, but then, what's the best place for them ?
I was talking with Rik van Riel about put those functions as memory management functions, but he do not agreed with me... "because its a v4linux specific thing"...
those mmap support functions can be used in some others places, as a commom interface to drivers to create a buffer with more control
