[PATCH 1/3] fb-defio: If FBINFO_VIRTFB is defined, do not set VM_IO flag.
From: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk
Date: Thu Dec 03 2009 - 10:37:30 EST
Most users (except sh_mobile_lcdcfb.c) get their framebuffer from
vmalloc. Setting VM_IO is not necessary as the memory obtained
from vmalloc is System RAM type and is not susceptible to PCI memory
constraints.
