The fbdev code uses compat_alloc_user_space in a few of its
compat_ioctl handlers, which tends to be a bit more complicated
and error-prone than calling the underlying handlers directly,
so I would like to remove it completely.
This modifies two such functions in fbdev, and removes another
one that is completely unused.

fbdev: sbuslib: remove compat_alloc_user_space usageLooks all good, but we're also kinda looking for a new volunteer for handling fbdev patches ... drm-misc commit rights, still not interested? -Daniel
