Written by Jaya Kumar. Features:
* use of defio. This enables it to work transparently with existing userspace fbdev applications, such as Xfbdev. I've been testing it with the unmodified Xfbdev from the beagleboard OE distro.
* avoiding the use of a backbuffer and keeping memory use low use of URB queuing
* looking like a typical fbdev driver and using standard edid and screeninfo structures
Current disadvantages:
* No compression or fills, etc - always sends raw pixels
