    Subject: [SDL] [patch] fall back to using MAP_PRIVATE with mmap() in fbcon dri
    
    trying to use MAP_SHARED with mmap() on uClinux (aka non-mmu) hosts nowadays
    will simply fail since the kernel disallows it ... falling back to using
    MAP_PRIVATE on these hosts is acceptable ... as such, ive attached a patch
    for the fbcon driver that will fall back to using MAP_PRIVATE if mmap() with
    MAP_SHARED failed
    
    going by a grep of MAP_SHARED, the only other drivers that utilize this flag
    are video/wscons, video/ps2gs, and sound/dmaaudio ... i dont think these
    would appear on a non-mmu host so the patch i wrote is restricted to just
    SDL_fbvideo.c ...
