Subject: [PATCH] auxdisplay/cfag12864bfb.c: Replace vm_insert_page

There is a plan to remove vm_insert_page permanently
and replace it with new API vmf_insert_page which will
return vm_fault_t type. As part of it vm_insert_page
is removed from this driver.

remap_pfn_range() will be used to map kernel memory to
user vma.
