We're now guaranteed to no longer race against prepare_fb/cleanup_fb, which means we can access ->vaddr without having to hold a lock. Before the previous patches it was fairly easy to observe the cursor ->vaddr being invalid, but that's now gone, so we can upgrade to a full WARN_ON.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
