LOL!

Don't worry, we'll be able to fix it before linux 3.0.0 (maybe).

OK, another patch. This one is a cumulative patch against the latest
Linus' git.

Thanks again!

fbmem: fix circular locking dependency between fb_info->lock and mm->mmap_sem

Avoid calling copy_from/to_user() with fb_info->lock mutex held in the
framebuffer's ioctl().

fb_mmap() is called under mm->mmap_sem (A) held, that also acquires
fb_info->lock (B); fb_ioctl() takes fb_info->lock (B) and does
copy_from/to_user() that might acquire mm->mmap_sem (A), causing a
deadlock.

Also fix other potential circular locking dependencies (always between
fb_info->lock and mm->mmap_sem) in fbcon that occur calling the blocking
fb_notifier_call_chain() with fb_info->lock held.

NOTE: it doesn't push down the fb_info->lock in each own driver's
specific fb_ioctl() implementation, so there are still some potential
deadlocks elsewhere.
