Ok, here we go:

Make fb layer aware of the difference between the ioremap()'ed VRAM and
total available VRAM.
smem_len in struct fb_fix_screeninfo contains the amount of physical
VRAM (reported to userspace via FBIOGET_FSCREENINFO ioctl) while the new
field mapped_vram in struct fb_info contains the amount of VRAM actually
ioremap()'ed by drivers (used in read/write/mmap operations).
If mapped_vram is not set it's assumed that the entire framebuffer is
mapped, thus other drivers are unaffected by this patch.
