Somebody submitted a patch against 2.4.13 which broke hgafb. That patch
called isa_memset() and isa_writeb() with an _already_ mapped address.
So that address was mapped twice -> oops.
The patch below is against 2.4.15-pre1. It resolves the ISA address
confusion, replaces scr_{read|write} functions with isa_{read|write},
and elimiates a cosmetic compiler warning about suggested parens.
Best regards:
Ferenc Bakonyi
