Subject: [ 069/150] drm/udl: disable fb_defio by default

3.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Dave Airlie <airlied@...hat.com>

commit 677d23b70bf949f75746c80cbae92c233c6b5e2a upstream.

There seems to be a bad interaction between gem/shmem and defio on top,
I get list corruption on the page lru in the shmem code.

Turn it off for now until we get some more digging done.
