Temporarily lock the fbdev buffer object during updates to prevent
memory managers from evicting/moving the buffer. Moving a buffer
object while update its content results in undefined behaviour.
Fbdev-generic updates its buffer object from a shadow buffer. Gem-shmem
and gem-dma helpers do not move buffer objects, so they are safe to be
used with fbdev-generic. Gem-vram and qxl are based on TTM, but pin
buffer objects are part of the vmap operation. So both are also safe
to be used with fbdev-generic.
Amdgpu and nouveau do not pin or lock the buffer object during an
update. Their TTM-based memory management could move the buffer object
while the update is ongoing.
The new vmap_local and vunmap_local helpers hold the buffer object's
reservation lock during the buffer update. This prevents moving the
buffer object on all memory managers.
