Do you think that mapped address of framebuffer is only problem? Why
then framebuffer output on n900 screen working without problem if I
do NOT read framebuffer memory? Problem with garbaged display output
seems happends only for read operations (console_scrollup, negation
of pixels for cursor,...) but not for write-only operations (clear
console, clear line, set black/white cursror, render fonsts...). I
think if there is problem with address space, then garbaged screen
should be also for framebuffer write operations...
