as you seen, I didn't give r-b on 3-6 patches of this series. They are the
ones that requires driver changes and ABI changes (vgahw and xf86MapLegacyIO
called by driver side), and I wasn't comfortable enough yet. Anyway at the
first look they seemed to be okay. Let's wait other guys review (Mark
Kettenis, for instance :)

Would be nice also if you rebase your changes in the top of the PULL request I
sent last week (and keith didn't push it yet), because it touches a lot of
common code:

Thank you,
