This implies that DRM should be passing back two distinct handle

will use the correct access function. This is also a pretty good
argument for hiding direct framebuffer access and forcing access with
read/write calls on a handle like the IA64 people want to do.
When you say "read" and "write" and "handle", do you mean read(2)/write(2) and
filehandle? Or some sort of #defined read/write macros? or something else?
They want to use read(2)/write(2).
Hmm, not sure that's going to happen.
