FYI, I intent to merge patches 1 and 2 of this patchset into 
drm-misc-next. The updates for PowerPC can be merged through PPC trees 
later. Let me know if this does not work for you.

Hi Thomas,

Sorry for the late reply, I was on leave.

Yeah that's fine.

cheers

Clean up and rename fb_pgprotect() to work without struct file. Then
refactor the implementation for PowerPC. This change has been discussed
at [1] in the context of refactoring fbdev's mmap code.

The first two patches update fbdev and replace fbdev's fb_pgprotect()
with pgprot_framebuffer() on all architectures. The new helper's stream-
lined interface enables more refactoring within fbdev's mmap
implementation.

Patches 3 to 5 adapt PowerPC's internal interfaces to provide
phys_mem_access_prot() that works without struct file. Neither the
architecture code or fbdev helpers need the parameter.

v5:
	* improve commit descriptions (Javier)
	* add missing tags (Geert)
v4:
	* fix commit message (Christophe)
v3:
	* rename fb_pgrotect() to pgprot_framebuffer() (Arnd)
v2:
	* reorder patches to simplify merging (Michael)
