This patch set makes sure that FB drivers for PCI devices utilizing

Basically this amounts to making sure that the vgastate->vgabase
__iomem pointer makes it way into every interfaces and gets used
by all of the I/O access calls.

All of arkfb, s3fb, and vt8623fb have been converted.
Great, I was thinking about something like this when looking at s3fb code and 
wondering how it can be extended to work with secondary cards (not 
initialized by BIOS). I'll test this with arkfb and s3fb.
