DRM drivers share a common address_space across all character-devices of a
single DRM device. This allows simple buffer eviction and mapping-control.
However, DRM core currently waits for the first ->open() on any char-dev
to mark the underlying inode as backing inode of the device. This delayed
initialization causes ugly conditions all over the place:
if (dev->dev_mapping)
do_sth();
To avoid delayed initialization and to stop reusing the inode of the
char-dev, we allocate an anonymous inode for each DRM device and reset
filp->f_mapping to it on ->open().

DRM driver for (virtual) vga cards using the bochs dispi
interface, such as the qemu standard vga (qemu -vga std).
Don't bother supporting anything but 32bpp for now, even
though the virtual hardware is able to do that.
Known issue: mmap(/dev/fb0) doesn't work.
