fbmem: don't call copy_from/to_user() with mutex held

Avoid calling copy_from/to_user() with fb_info->lock mutex held in fbmem
ioctl().

fb_mmap() is called under mm->mmap_sem (A) held, that also acquires
fb_info->lock (B); fb_ioctl() takes fb_info->lock (B) and does
copy_from/to_user() that might acquire mm->mmap_sem (A), causing a
deadlock.

NOTE: it doesn't push down the fb_info->lock in each own driver's
fb_ioctl(), so there are still potential deadlocks elsewhere.
