There was a bunch of IO access fixes in rivafb.  Can you narrow it down to
a particular function?  Replace the following...

 .fb_fillrect  = rivafb_fillrect,
 .fb_copyarea  = rivafb_copyarea,
 .fb_imageblit  = rivafb_imageblit,
 .fb_cursor = rivafb_cursor,

..with:

 .fb_fillrect  = cfb_fillrect,
 .fb_copyarea  = cfb_copyarea,
 .fb_imageblit  = cfb_imageblit,
 .fb_cursor = soft_cursor,

And make sure that 'info->pixmap.scan_align = 4' if using rivafb_imageblit
and 'info->pixmap.scan_align = 1' if using cfb_imageblit. (The scan
alignment is adjusted in rivafb_set_par() and riva_set_fbinfo()).

Using the soft drawing functions (cfb_*), in theory, should always produce
a working console. Then just bring back the rivafb_* functions one by one.
Ok, it works using all the soft functions. I'll swap them out now...
