At GEM is actually pretty sane when you get your head around it a spot. The main thing it took me a bit of time to get my head around is that it allocates backing memory and handles but it doesn't allocate address space on the card side. For a minimal GEM take a look at drivers/staging/gma500/psb_gem.c. As I need to use a GTT and allocate address space I also use a standard Linux resource struct. If you just need to grab RAM and don't care about address spaces then you are well away except for getting console support I imagine. The GMS500 one has no magic interfaces for things like swapping objects, as the card is just using it for 2D frame buffer objects so hopefully is a bit easier to follow than the full works.
