[PATCH 3/3] fbdev: hyperv_fb: Fix mmap of framebuffers allocated using alloc_pages()

[mhkelley58]

From: Michael Kelley <mhklinux@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Framebuffer memory allocated using alloc_pages() was added to hyperv_fb in
commit 3a6fb6c4255c ("video: hyperv: hyperv_fb: Use physical memory for fb
on HyperV Gen 1 VMs.") in kernel version 5.6. But mmap'ing such
framebuffers into user space has never worked due to limitations in the
kind of memory that fbdev deferred I/O works with. As a result of the
limitation, hyperv_fb's usage results in memory free lists becoming corrupt
and Linux eventually panics.

With support for framebuffers allocated using alloc_pages() recently added
to fbdev deferred I/O, fix the problem by setting the flag telling fbdev
deferred I/O to use the new support.

Fixes: 3a6fb6c4255c ("video: hyperv: hyperv_fb: Use physical memory for fb on HyperV Gen 1 VMs.")
