Subject: [042/114] matroxfb: fix incorrect use of memcpy_toio()

2.6.35-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Ondrej Zary <linux@...nbow-software.org>

commit c81476df1b4241aefba4ff83a7701b3a926bd7ce upstream.

Screen is completely corrupted since 2.6.34.  Bisection revealed that it's
caused by commit 6175ddf06b61720 ("x86: Clean up mem*io functions.").

H.  Peter Anvin explained that memcpy_toio() does not copy data in 32bit
chunks anymore on x86.
