For me screen_size is zero. The logic to determine the size is copied
from fb_read. In the meantine I'm using
if (len > PAGE_ALIGN(screen_size))
because even if userspace passes an unaligned size it gets aligned
somewhere on the path to fb_get_unmapped_area.

Sounds sensible. Then the same applies to blackfin's
get_fb_unmapped_area.
So is it:
unsigned long screen_size = info->screen_size ?: info->fix.smem_len;
screen_size = PAGE_ALIGN(screen_size);
if (pgoff > screen_size || pgoff + len > screen_size)
return -EINVAL;
return (unsigned long)info->screen_base + pgoff;
? Or should I drop the size check?
Best regards
Uwe
