Hello Chris,

like Vijay said in his introduction mail: I asked him to send a preview
of the patch so that Nils can start working with it. Vijay already sent
a second version with a test. Basically it's the same structure like for
the other calls: A test whether the devfs layer routes the call through
to the driver.

The mmap can only work for some drivers. Basically every driver that
returns a pointer to some existing memory location. So with this patch
we have to take a better look at mmap implementation of drivers in the
future.

Best regards

Christian
