As suggested I replaced the iopa() with a virt_to_phys() call which is
really more linux-conform... I think the changes are to be done to make
iopa(), __pa() and other address translation schemes obsolete, replacing
them with the virt_to_phys(), virt_to_bus() and vice versa calls.
(LKML readers:) This patch is used on at least my APUS system to make
framebuffer based X servers functional again after it has gone broken
since version 2.1.120. If you think the patch is of everyone's concern,
please remove the #ifdef ... #endif and put it in the kernel...
Comments appreciated,
Carsten
