Modifying fb_ops directly to override fb_mmap with fb_deferred_io_mmap
and then resetting it to NULL afterwards causes problems all over the
place. First, it prevents making the fbops member of struct fb_info a
const pointer, which means we can't make struct fb_ops const
anywhere. Second, a few places have to go out of their way to restore
the original fb_mmap pointer that gets reset to NULL.
Since the only user of the fbops->fb_mmap hook is fb_mmap() in fbmem.c,
call fb_deferred_io_mmap() directly when deferred IO is enabled, and
avoid modifying fb_ops altogether.
Simply use info->fbdefio to determine whether deferred IO should be used
or not. This should be accurate enough for all use cases, although
perhaps not pedantically correct.
v2: Simplify considerably by calling fb_deferred_io_mmap() directly

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
