Subject[GIT PULL] Xen fbdev fixups
Hi Linus,

Here are some small updates to fbdev to make the Xen fbdev driver work
properly. The bulk of the change is to make sure we only set VM_IO on
vmas which actually map device memory, and not set it on plain old
vmalloc memory. This is necessary in Xen, because we end up using that
flag to determine whether the ptes are mapping real machine physical
memory or guest pseudo-physical memory.

We also do this on the other fbdev drivers which allocate vmalloc
framebuffers for consistency.

Thanks,
J

Fix toogle whether xenbus driver should be built as module or part of kernel.
fb-defio: If FBINFO_VIRTFB is defined, do not set VM_IO flag.
