drm/vmwgfx: Avoid pinning fbdev framebuffers fbdev framebuffers were previously pinned to be able to keep them mapped across updates. This commit introduces a mechanism that instead revalidates the map on each update, keeping the map cached across updates. The cached map is torn down if the underlying pages change. Typically on buffer object moves and swapouts. This should be nicer to the system when we have resource contention. Testing done: Basic fbdev functionality under Fedora 27.
